The top-grade centering line at PSA, BGS, CGC, SGC, TAG and ACE, with the date each was read. Each company’s own page has every grade quoted from its official standard, with current fees.
Measure a card →| Service | Top grade | Front | Back | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PSA | GEM-MT 10 | ~55/45 | 75/25 | 2026-10-28 |
| Beckett (BGS) | Pristine 10 / Black Label | 50/50 | 55/45 | 2026-07-14 |
| CGC Cards | Pristine 10 | 50/50 | — | 2026-10-28 |
| SGC | 10 Pristine | 50/50 | — | 2026-09-17 |
| TAG | Pristine 10 | ~51/49 | ~52/48 TCG | 2026-10-28 |
| ACE | Gem Mint 10 | under 60/40 | under 60/40 | 2026-10-28 |
“~” is the company’s own “approximately”; “under” marks ACE’s lines, which exclude the boundary (“less than” or “greater than” a split), so a card exactly on the figure does not meet them. TAG’s back is its TCG line; for sports cards it is ~54.5/45.5. ACE does not say front or back for its 10; applied to both. Each company is re-read monthly where its site can be read; Beckett and SGC block automated reading, so their figures come from the dated official copies shown.
All six services side by side, grades 10 to 5. Each published figure for grades 7 and up links to that grade’s page, with the line quoted from the official standard.
