Hi,

I do know that for a card that does not meet minimum size requirements, SGC looks for evidence of trimming. If they find such evidence, they advise it is trimmed/altered. If not, they will still refuse a numerical grade, but they will specify that the card is unaltered and authentic.

(And FWIW, on a card like that, if you specify on the submission form that you don't want an "A" holder, they will return the undersized card to you with a voucher in the amount of the grading fee you paid - at least they did that for me on an undersized but unaltered card from my last submission. If they find evidence of trimming, no voucher.)

Cheers,
Blair
