Opinions on this Cobb card
 

authentic?

Beautiful card....but I am always skeptical about cards that have sharp edges.

Couple more pics
 

All thoughts and opinions would be appreciated

Looks like a nice, real card to me. I am not the de facto T206 expert though...

My opinion is authentic, but trimmed.

I sure hope it's real, it's a beauty.

First, it is real. Next, it would be good to get a scan of it on a flat bed scanner, instead of the tilted photos... but with what's there I think the card's borders are real and not trimmed nor doctored.

That card needs soaking, so that the coffee or whatever on the bottom right diminishes. Might need soaking for a couple of days, with multiple water changes.

That's a nice card.

Looks like a very nice authentic card. I think the coffee stain might be a shadow as it extends beyond the card. I also don't see distinct signs of trimming but it is sharp enough that it needs to be looked at more closely.

Can you get a shot of the whole card front and back...any others to compare it beside?

best i could do for now...

Can you get the whole card in one shot, looks diamond cut.

I think it has a good shot to grade. Looks like a diamond cut. Nice card.

I see and understand that it isn't a stain, but a shadow during photographing. Until scans are posted, instead of photos, this is all a bit of a game.

I agree with the diamond cut. Save the grading money and spend it on buying more cards. That Cobb is a nice one.

Stain or not, beautiful card.

+1

This is a perfect example of how great these cards look without the slab. Slabs ruin eye appeal, that's Just my opinion. The registration on that Cobb is beautiful... Very very nice.
