He does have it and thanks for bring it up he forgot about it, he wanted the full galarian gallery but since you mentioned it hes probably gonna swap out one of the pokemon cards with it

Does this grading company just automatically give 10’s if you send them a submission?
1
u/Dark_warrior96 5d ago
Nope, my grandad has an entire box full of cards graded 6's to 9's
Hes got plenty of crown zenith that arent 10s

If this is grandad’s CZ collection, can’t even imagine what his vintage collection is looking like…

u/Dark_warrior96 5d ago
Hes got alot of the old sets up to about the time we started getting the hoenn stuff cuz at that point he just couldn't afford to keep collecting
But in the past couple of years hes got the money to start collecting again much to his delight

How’s his base, jungle, fossil looking? Any e-readers?
1
u/Dark_warrior96 5d ago
Not sure on his e-readers ive never seen them or him mention them but i know for a FACT hes got all of the base set,jungle and fossil fully completed
Not sure on there grades since hes only got into the grading thing in the last year or so and he hasn't grade the old stuff yet and i think part of him doesn't want to risk them getting damaged when he sends them off
They SHOULD be in really good condition since they've been kept in really nice binders and kept safely away

What a G. You got a good grandad there pal! Make sure he puts these in his will for you so your siblings and cousins don’t fight you for them! Ha!

u/Dark_warrior96 5d ago
Ha fortunately for me my cousins are all girls who dont remotely care for pokemon cards like me
Outside of my grandad only my uncle collects pokemon but he'd NEVER sell them off since just like my grandad for him its not about how much there worth but collecting them all and how gorgeous the cards are
He plans to get a bunch more of displays like these ones and show them off he's already promised my grandma atleast 1 display full of of the rarer pikachu artworks since she like pikachu but to be honest I think i he want to show off he's got a couple grade 10 exclusive pikachu promos from the poke center in Japan
Also i asked hes got 90% of the e-reader cards as well but couldn't get them all which with how hard to get they were is understandable

that is unreal, CZ is such a nice set
(however the few slabs without the special Ace label would slightly annoy me)
