Robert-Those two cards are trimmed and someone did a horrible job to boot.

And to Lonnie- Magnifying a card or laying a card on top of one another are not methods used to determine if a card has been trimmed. Knowing how to detect a consistent factory cut is how you determine if a card is trimmed, and that can be different from year to year and from issue to issue.

Just a suggestion to anyone who cannot tell if a raw card is trimmed or altered--pay a bit more and buy the card already graded and save yourself disappointment, time and frustration. Card may still be trimmed or altered but it is in a holder making it easier to sell down the road and less likely a chance you will lose money.
