This one is mine, and I have no interest in cutting it squarely. But thought it would be nice to have an example of what that progression might look like.

Do you think a little trim on this would give it a higher grade? The card only has the one rough side. I have never collected these strip cards so I don't know what they really look at for grading.

I would leave that one alone. If the margins are too narrow, they get an A.

+1. It would be a shame for that not to get a number...(always with a hand cut designation too)

Default strip cards

I would agree that if the cards are in rough shape (like those Ruths) and already short of designated dimension, I would not re-cut.

However, if the cards are beyond the allowed specs, and it could be trimmed up, I would do so as they are graded as "hand cut" anyway.
