Oh come on.... there is no way that Skinner gets designated as "miscut". And as for that being the reason for the "3"... I highly doubt it. More likely, there's a faint wrinkle or crease that doesn't show up in the scan.

There an infinite number of cards with far more severe "tilting" and diamond cuts that grade 6 and even 7. Just peruse eBay for 5 minutes, and you'll see how far TPGs have recently moved the goalposts.

If there is no hidden crease, that card would have been at least a "5" (probably better) if graded five or more years ago.
