I would say it is AUTHENTIC, but who knows how they will grade it, I have seen many of this issue with partial borders that have been given numerical grades, usually part of the border is trimmed all the way around, not actually missing chunks like yours.

100% that card will grade Authentic due to the right border. I would trim the bottom a bit, just to improve the eye appeal of the card before it gets holdered. Maybe a bit of cleanup on the other sides also.

I would absolutely X-Acto knife the top, the left side, and the bits of white sticking out of the right to 'high class' it up a bit, while retaining the "Wheaties" on the bottom.
As such... IMG_7109x.jpg

Nah, just cut the Wheaties off at the bottom with the 12. Otherwise they might have to put it in a slab for much larger cards, and it will be nonstandard for collectors of the set (hard to store or ship).

Some cards were intended to be cut by the collector. This is one of them. Just cut the card.
