I concur with the “not trimmed” answers. It just isn’t laying flat on the scanner as evident by how the “outline” printing is curving the exact same as the edges.

Should grade a 4 or 5 if there are no small surface wrinkles.

Is it common the front, and back print is off in this manner? The front left border is narrow, and the back left is wide. The Right front border is wide, the back narrow. Opposite of each other.

I'm gonna say 2.5

Looking at the top left corner, it appears to have a "dog ear". which is a tell-tale sign of trimming. I hope I'm wrong, and that it grades numerically. I personally never buy raw cards (unless I'm pulling them from packs with my son). I always buy cards already graded by SGC or PSA.

Very likely the eBay authenticator will just easily pass it and send to you (I have no idea how they review cards, seems like just a formality). Sending it to PSA will be the real test.

IF PSA gives it a number...20 years ago it would have graded a 6 or 7...today, a 3 or 4.

Yep - Agree - and for whatever it's worth - Once a card is trimmed you pretty much can see the telltale "tits" sticking out on each of the trim side corners. (in my experience anyway).

Probably not trimmed; 3.5 from either either company.

I received the card today and I could see no signs of trimming. And it does present much better in person versus the listing pictures I posted. I just got done packing it up for PSA (express grading) and will drop it off at Fed Ex first thing tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed it comes back at least a 4. I think it has a real good chance for a 5.

Hope you get what you're hoping for. Not sure I would have been able to swallow the $170 bucks or so, in Grading and Shipping charges just to get it back quicker.

Good luck.

Any update on the grade? I think express it should be graded by now?
