"Sheet cut" basically means a card that was specifically cut from a sheet, by the collector or dealer. For example:
A collector or dealer buys an uncut sheet of say, 1979 Topps baseball, that contains the Ozzie Smith RC. The Ozzie RC is notorious for centering problems. The collector/dealer knows this, so he bought the full 132-card sheet specifically to try to get a perfectly centered Ozzie RC. He takes it to a professional printer/paper cutter, and has them cut the Ozzie out of the sheet, hoping for that elusive perfect centering.
This is completely different from the normal sheets of cards that Topps (or any other card company) prints, cuts, and puts into packs.
