This card seems like a good starting point to retrain any grader assigning numeric grades to trimmed cards. If they can't get this one correct, there's no hope. If they spot this one, you gradually increase the level of difficulty.

It certainly doesn't belong in a numeric holder, and they don't have a designation for "Evidence of Mutilation", so I'm not sure what the complaint is here. It's not like that flip is hurting the resale value of this card.

I can understand being annoyed by the “ evidence of trimming“
Evidence of trimming typically implies shenanigans - That Delong was obviously not trimmed to deceive .
Back in the old day you might’ve got a straight authentic or “genuine”

I don't think SGC does a straight Authentic anymore. Since they implemented their improved Authentic grade, they need a description and limited it to 4 choices. https://www.gosgc.com/authentic-Improvement

Thanks I didn’t know that - Maybe they’ll add something to address too much of the card missing that would be better than “ evidence of trimming “

One could argue the "altered" choice also encapsulates (pun intended) the "color added" and "evidence of trimming" choices.....

Not exactly true. I got this back about a month ago.

I wonder if the “hand cut” element makes a difference in this case.

This was the answer I received when I asked the question:

“When our Team is authenticating and evaluating a card for a possible numeric grade, they are looking at many aspects of a card. If our Team deemed a card to be altered, they will have it authenticated, with a secondary designation underneath this. However, there are some cards that our Team will only authenticate at this time. Some of these will include any blank back cards, modern sketch cards, or cards that have an error that affects the overall aspect of the card like missing ink or foil”.
