The top and bottom borders are, 70-30, 80-20?? Hard to tell but the card looks to be cut on an angle. Looking at the card, the left border seems to taper a bit, from bottom to top. Well, over a decade ago, I submitted a 63 Fleer Koufax which I believed to be a 7 or 8. It came back a 5. I was shocked. I purchased a loupe and notice the imperfect corners and surface scratches that could not be seen with the naked eye. It was a fair grade, tough, but fair.
