Thanks a lot guys! Again I appreciate the help. I'll defiantly pass on the grading and work on my collection. I'll defiantly share if I get anything good or if I have any questions.
@ingredient Thanks for the offer! I'll defiantly keep that in mind.

Pretty difficult to tell from that scan, but when in doubt, grade all Mantle cards.

At least all regular issue cards during his playing days and yours is on that list.

Even raw folks should appreciate a TPG giving it a grade and confirming that it is not altered. Both accounts have subjectivity, but better than running through life raw dogging it. They can always crack it out and tape the label on the back of the card saver. I have a few of those.

Looks like a "4" from here. Probably get your fee $ back and a few bucks more if slabbed if you plan on selling it

Just requested a submission kit. I will be sending this card in. Thanks everyone that replied. Perhaps I could do a guess this grade on this card? But probably got to wait a good month or 2 before i respond back. Im hoping it be a 6 or better. This weekend, i hope to put up better pics, i have a wi-fi all-in-one, but have not figured how to scan wirelessly from it. SO i just take pics from a camera.
