Default T206 guys help me out: Is this card trimmed?

It measures fine. The way its cut seems uniform, but it looks weird. Obviously I'm biased toward wanting it to be un-altered, so I figured I'd ask you guys. Thanks for looking.

Yeah, that right edge looks funky, particularly the flare out at the top.

Thanks for responding Conor. I definitely agree about the top right and bottom right corners flaring out. To me it looks like the cut on the right side curves in and makes the corners flare out. And the cut on the left side looks like it curves outward. Does anyone else see that?

You rarely, if ever, see a wavy factory cut on a T206. Maybe you do on some of the 50's-70's cards, but almost never on a T206. But yes, definitely trimmed (even if it does measure correctly).

I'm by no means an expert and without even looking at the side of the card which is another good way of telling if a card is trimmed, this looks trimmed big time.

That corner is pretty wavy, I don't like either side of the card. Just realized it was Luke who posted this !! Luke you seem like you'd know better than I would.
