It appears that Topps takes some of their mini framed autos and puts them into the Ginter rip cards (without a frame). I noticed that there is no distinction on the checklist or pop report between the ones with frames and the ones without. They're all just listed as framed, despite coming without a frame from the manufacturer. There is only 1 card number. I looked this card over again and there is absolutely no way its even remotely close to a 5. Only thing I can think is PSA thinks I removed the frame from this card myself and docked me for it.

I suspect that if they thought you had altered the card like that, they would have refused to grade it on account of it being altered... but who knows?
