Two Koufax autos crossed over from PSA "TRADING CARD" holders are back...

I decided to see what card grades these would get....and confirm they would get number grades. Success!

Was hoping for a '3' on the '66.

I thought this was a strong '3'

Nice to get them both back with number grades on the cards, and no funny stuff with the previously-PSA-authenticated autos.

Note - for those not aware of the difference, the 'TRADING CARD' label is used when only the autograph is authenticated. For both of these, the card was not authenticated nor was it deemed to be un-altered. So that's the risk with buying the 'TRADING CARD' slabs. PSA/DNA dual grade should be preferred for that reason.

...but whether the card grade and/or auto grade show as 'authentic' or a number grade....that's another topic.
