I'm not sure....I do know many 53 Bowman Color Cards are factory short mini sized and will not grade.

Since I started building my raw, low grade 53 Bowman color set, beginning with a trade that got me going, I have noticed these cards are all over the place with size, off centering, blurriness, colors, print lines, ink blobs, you name it. Some are beautiful, some aren't, and some raise questions. I'm over it. I just accept it is what it is with these cards...no fakery or anything nefarious by today's sellers.

But it seems to be these sets where original sizes are all over the board and quality control was so poor that are being specifically targeted by doctors for this very reason?

I don't think those bottoms look uneven. I think the card is bowing in the middle, and the perspective makes it look uneven.

They're also slightly diamond cut/tilted, but consistent.

Thank you for your input, I am going to delete the thread as I don't want to influence anyone negatively apart from the issue with the Spahn in the seller's relisting.
