The OP asked for an opinion and we gave one. I don't personally think the card is rare enough for me to stomach the corner missing. But that is just me and you . On some other cards I barely see it but on that one I just saw it and couldn't take my eyes off it. Hey, I have nice cards with chunks missing too. All that matters is you like the card. The other parts of it are very nice. I recently passed up a higher grade T205 Cobby due to a spec of tobacco on his head. We all have things we do and don't like. Each card is different to me.

The larger cabinet-type cards frequently have problems only with the borders and not the image.
Personally I tend to focus on the image and not the pinholes, border stains and missing corners.
I agree with those who suggest that the grade is irrelevant, whether it is technically accurate or not.

The character of such a card can be enhanced by its defects.
I like to look at my $18 T3 and wonder who stole home plate and why.
