Aloha! My first instinct was to say measure them. But I have about 3000 57s raw and I can tell you when stacked together theyare not uniform in dimensions and do not make a brick like modern cards. My quest is...Does anyone know what the grading companys use as criteria for measuring older cards?? For example if a card wer trimmed or factory cut "just a sliver" say 1/64" would it be detected? Mahalo, Dave.

As far as I know it's both size and the qualities of the cut edge. Different equipment leaves a different sort of cut. And the aging of the edges woulld be different.

I'd be surprised if any of those were trimmed, but people do a lot of odd stuff.

Between the o/c cards and rounded corners, I doubt they are trimmed.

Unless there are some high numbers or errors there I doubt anyone would trim them, you've got at most $10 to $15 value
