The microscope I recommended is about the size of a cigarette lighter so it is very easy to use.

Just look at a known good card and then look at the one in question. If it has been trimmed you will know it. Can't really explain what to look for because there are so many different ways to trim a card. Each one looks different than a factory cut.
