Default Question about high end graded cards being trimmed

Posted By: leon

If I am not mistaking many very rare/expensive coins have pedigrees. Maybe higher end cards will go that route? I also agree that trimming/micro-reshaping, or whatever you want to call it, is prevelent on grades 1-5, but won't be as epidemic as on higher grade cards. Everyone needs to read what whacky Dan K said too. He is absolutely correct.....Cards most likely don't disintegrate over time, at least not as much as is commonly seen with extremely rounded corners. I believe many lower grade cards had clipped corners at one time and then were rounded off, with rubbing, to make them look like they have normal wear. Just my little 'ole opinion...best regards
