T206 trimmed or not?

I presume any tobacco card with sharp corners is trimmed...graded or not. After the PSA Wagner incident I now seek rounded corners.

This is a good way to operate in my opinion. I would never pay "5" money for a raw t206 that looks like a "5" unless I knew and trusted the seller and he had had it his collection for a long time.

That's good advice. I'm working on a 150 only set and this is the 649 overprint which I need hence not simply moving on. I like the advice on not buying sharp corners in raw. Thanks for your help I'll try to get the measurements.

Not trimmed in my opinion

I don't think that it's trimmed. I also wouldn't pay much for a card with such heavy creasing.
