Default T206 "Authentics"

I think you could move them for $25-$30 as JimB mentioned if the level of trimming is very minor and they don't look significantly smaller than the standard T206 size. A limited number of collectors who want crease-free cards that look like 5s or 6s that can't afford the real deal would buy them. However, I think a high percentage of T206 collectors would stay away from them.

Personally, I wouldn't pay more than $10 for a trimmed T206 with a common back, even if it looks like 5 or 6 (or a 7 or 8 for that matter). To me, trimming is the "kiss of death". I'd rather have an unaltered 2 or 2.5 for the same $25-$30 even if it was creased or had rounded corners. Obviously, that's just my personal preference and every collector is different.
