Wanted to pose a combination ethical and technical question. I have several hand cut cards that wee cut out in a manner that left extra "stuff"around the card that isn't supposed to be there. The cuts are sloppy and like it or not - the grading companies heavily (sometimes "A" sometimes a 1 or 2) penalizes for this historical sloppiness. My question is - is it wrong or bad form to correct the cut so the card looks nice. Clearly the grading companies can see a new cut (if they are thorough that day) so a secondary question is - would they distinguish between a period cut and a modern cut in a handcut card? Happy to hear opinions and direct experience both on the effectiveness of this approach and the ethics around it. Thanks! Note I have not done this - really just curious as the hand cut cards I've been collecting have beeb picking up in value.
