PSA Label – Same Card, Updated Set Name

[youseekyoda421]

Any chance I can get this changed to the original set label?

I own two copies of the same card. One was already PSA graded and I recently submitted the other. The parallel label is different on the newer card.

Old: 2011 Topps – Black
New: 2011 Topps – Black Border

This is a minor detail, but I'm working on a run of Topps Black cards and this appears to be the only one being labeled "Black Border." I also think the change is odd as both the wrapper odds and Topps sell sheet list the parallel as "Black."

For example:

Old (sorry for the giant picture!):



New:


2011 Topps - [Base] - Black #330 - Derek Jeter /60 [PSA 8 NM‑MT]

Looks mislabeled. Partial 'Wal-Mart Black Border', but not quite that either.

How many total 2011 cards in the pop report as "Black Border"? Hopefully just this one.

I'd submit the CRC request, tell them its numbered, tell them it's "Black" parallel, tell them its mislabeled.

Aha! The Wal-Mart Black Border might explain the change. Good catch. I wonder if there was confusion about the Black parallel with the Wal-Mart black background? That would be mildly disappointing, but I have seen a number of the Wal-mart parallels listed as the Black parallel

In this case, it appears not to be a mislabel, but a global change. When I check the cert on my old label card, the page on PSA says "Black Border" even though the old label only says Black. All the cards listed in the population report are "Black Border."
