But.

The card previously was outed as trimmed and "reperforated" in 2019.

I have two of these cards and they look very different, they just don't in my experience look like this when separated from the sheets. Also note the slant along the right edge which I don't think is a scan artifact. In my opinion, Beckett may have made a mistake.

Note: I sent this information by email to MHCC two days ago but did not receive a response. I hope they will evaluate the information and, if they concur there is an issue, take appropriate action.

The card in question. And my PSA 8.

The card is not at all perfect. Half of the left side has blunt perfs.

Peter you are correct those white pieces of paper should be bent in or down if the card was folded or cut off the sheet.

To me This card in a 10 holder Screams “Worked On”

Nobody will grade them if cut. They have to be folded and separated.

These threads always make me laugh and smile.

My sincere thanks to the opinion sellers for causing me pleasure.

It’s Seems the Majority Could Care Less Once It’s in A Holder. We Have Reached A Point in this Hobby Where the Card Has Little Significance, it’s all about the Holder/Grade.

John, as I've said for years, the flip is now the commodity. Hard to comprehend for someone who was mentored by a generation of dealers and collectors for whom originality was sacred.

Those are the prettiest perforations I've ever seen. No way was that folded out of a sheet of magazine cards.

[drcy]

I don't really understand how the perforations are part of the card's grade, beyond that they have to be full and all there. "Perfect, sharp edges" to the perforation nubs seem silly and irrelevant to me.

In other breaking news, the sky is blue (well, brown in Los Angeles).

Why do they award numerical grades to these types of cards?

To turn a bit of cardboard into $50,000.

Same reason they award numbers to anything.

I have never understood how you could give a # to strip cards or anything that had to be cut/torn out.

Because when you sell opinions for a living, you don't really care what your opinion is about, as long as you're getting paid.
