Default Why did SGC make a point to say this card is unaltered?

They probably feel that the card is original, but does not meet their minimum size requirement.

Could the seller have asked SGC to not grade numerically?

So if does not meet minimum size requirements and it was not altered, what happened, did it shrink?

The more significant issue about the card is the listed price -- about 3-4x what it's worth.

Wasn't this card just in a major auction? I believe it was purchased from Heritage (for half that) a month or two ago.

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
