PSA 8 T206 an illusion?
 
Maybe this is just an illusion from the scan or maybe I am just not seeing it correctly but that bottom left corner looks blatantly dog earred to me which is a dead give a way for a trim job.

Maybe Chris Brown can work his photo shop magic on this one.

Upper right doesn't look right to me either, but what do I know.

Dan the card's gotta be fine since it's already exceeded $4300 bucks. ;)

Looks strange to me too. But could it be that the diamond cut makes it appear that way? Likely not but just a shot in the dark.

Hard to say from the scan. The card looks a little tilted in the holder. The opposite corner seems tilted up in similar proportions.

The link isn't working for me.

What I see when I look at the card from the image is that corner wasn't cut all of the way through the thickness of the card and you are looking at little frills from the bottom edge of the card. If you look at it in the right light / shading you can make out a very slight shadow line where a straight cut would be.

I have an 8 with the same properties.

The same exists on the lower right side as well, but ever so slightly, and in from the corner a little bit.

I don't know if I would say the same about the upper right corner.

Dan, almost all PSA 8 T206's are illusions of something bigger.
