Trimmed Card Crossover
I had a question for some more experienced collectors. Awhile back, I bought a 19th Century HOF in a GAI holder. When I received the card, it measured 1/8" short and the bottom of the card looked trimmed to me upon close inspection. I based this on the bottom edge of card having a different age look than the other three sides. I returned the card figuring it would just be a waste of time and money to attempt a crossover.
I now see the same card is in a numerical slab from SGC (lower grade). I'm not losing any sleep over returning the card. However, my question is how rare is it for SGC or PSA to slab a trimmed card? It is very likely the card wasn't trimmed as I'm certainly not an expert. However, it got me thinking. Thanks.
