E98 Authenticity question. help please

[sb1]

They were cut with a single blade, the sheet first cut into strips and they separated top to bottom. skewed cuts occurred when the blades get dull and pull rather than cut, making the sheet to be slightly turned and cut crooked.

For the record I do not think the card is trimmed. This card was probably at the bottom of the strip and got pulled out of whack on the cut.

Thank you for the explanation, I appreciate it. Apparently I was waaaay off in thinking about how sheets were cut!

Sorry to hijack the thread with my attempts to learn more about the process and what to look for, but if anyone has slabbed E cards with numeric grades that have a cut like this where one side is really different I would like to see a few to build a better frame of reference in my head.

Thanks.

Hey Jobu
You didn't hijack at all. This is a way for me and I hope others to learn about this. Thanks for the reply
