Hey guys, do you know if Beckett grades the thick auto patches from 2011 sp authentic football? I imagine it probably is at least 120pt and I currently have it in a magnetic holder. Would it be acceptable to send it to get graded in a magnetic holder or would they prefer the thick top loader? Thanks for your time.

PS: Anybody have experiences sending these kind of cards in? How was your experience? I heard its very rare to get over an 8.5, but I'm thinking these 2 sp authentic rookie patches should get a 9.5.

I would imagine all the SP Authentics are the same year to year, I've had a couple 09-10 SPA AU Patches (hockey) graded by Beckett just fine.

In my experience, it seems to be hard to get good grades on really thick cards like the SPA Patches, my brief recollection is that there's 1-2 (out of ~40?) SPA Hockey Patches that were a 9.5 in the last 3 years, no 10s.
