Magnificent 1912 Hassan Triple Folder PSA Graded complete set, the current 2nd Finest listed on the PSA Set Registry with a 6.34 GPA. After completing and selling what was then considered to be the finest T206 PSA Graded set over 15 years ago our consignor then turned his efforts toward building the finest T202 Hassan Triple Folder PSA Graded set. This would prove to be a more difficult task as the T202’s are much harder to find in high grade with just 13% of the over 9500 cards submitted to PSA for grading coming back NM 7 or better. Issued already folded the cards are very sensitive to minor creases and surface wrinkles which can affect the grade. Also, with the 2 end cards folded over the photo in between, poor cutting can also prove to be a major problem. His efforts these past many years result in the offered set, with almost 50% of the cards NM PSA 7 or better and over 75% in EX-MT PSA 6 or better.
Overall set breakdown is as follows: NM-MT PSA 8 (22), NM+ PSA 7.5 (3), NM PSA 7 (39), EX-MT+ PSA 6.5 (3), EX-MT PSA 6 (35), EX PSA 5 (23), VG-EX PSA 4 (4), and VG PSA 3 (3).
