Does This T206 Look Trimmed?

The fraying and pressing in the corners looks natural, thus hard to replicate if a trimmed edge. But could only truly tell for sure if overlay another authentic/unaltered T206 under or on top.

Not following. Why would overlaying it into another T206 let you know for sure? Don’t T206 cards vary quite a bit in size?

For what it is worth, it looks original and not trimmed to me.

Yes, T206s can vary in size. This one is kind of drastic but there are minor size differences.

Along the top border and the right border you can see the tell tale rolling of the paper due to cutting. A lot of people miss this unique characteristic of T cards and how they were cut. I am sure there are some experts in this area that will chime in so hopefully I did them proud with my explanation.

wow good stuff and good learning

To me it looks good but I am not an expert so do not count my uneducated (but trying to learn) experience

I think you are imagining things on this card, though I don't disagree with your thoughts on the telltale signs.
