The top-front right definitely looks like it has a bat ear. But I don't see it on the back side scan. |

I think if you broke it open and sold the card you'd be lucky to get $25 for it as a trimmed card. |

Back is obvious just look at the top border, not a blue line all the way across, definately not an even cut. |

Doesn't even fit their holder. Not that the underendowed plastic comparers on the registry will care. |

A very old grade? Does that mean that only newly graded stuff from PSA is done properly? What does it matter when it was graded? If I recall, PSA's best graders were the original ones who now run GAI. |

I saw a number of cards from the "T206 Southern Card find" and owned a few as well. In case there are some on the board that are not familiar with the find, these T206's were stored away and untouched for years and were generally as mint as most 2005 cards. Some of these cards were so uncirculated that there were shavings were still attached to the top and/or bottom borders. |

It is not possible for a T206 to have dog ears from the factory. The dog ears come from a paper cutter and T206's were not factory cut this way. Dog ears on a card means trimmed. At least it always has as far back as I can remember. And I was referring to Mike Baker who now runs GAI. |

The last T206 I had from this find (I elluded to earlier) did get rejected. I sold it to a graded dealer raw and I am sure it eventually got into a holder. |

If you saw these cards, trimming wasn't necessary. These cards were as nice T206 as ever hit the market. |

Why would cards from the "find" have a different cut? Were they from a particular factory? |

I can respect your opinion but I still disagree, as Adam states, maybe 1 of the 3 original finders trimmed his grouping. You would need to find a group yourself fresh to the hobby that was dog eared to be sure and I have found many groups, 600+ recently with 7s in it and none dog eared. I have seen many dog eared cards over the years, tobacco and topps and all have been trimmed. The T206 cutting process was a block cutter I believe hence making it impossible to create the dog ear effect. A paper cutter on the other hand, will make this everytime. And yes, disagreeing is good for discussion. Dan. |

...is the statement that these cards were so nice they didn't have to be trimmed. Well, usually, the best reason to trim one edge is to make it look as pristine as 3 pristine edges. Thus, it's the best condition cards that are most susceptible to having been trimmed. That is, after all, why I am quite satisfied with T206 cards graded 4's and 5's, with nice even wear on all four corners. |
