4.5
I don't see the bat ears so it looks like a nice oversize. If the corners were razor sharp, then that might be a sign of trimming, but I don't see it. It looks wavey because it may not be laying flat. Nice pickup, but it's like what Forrest Gump's mother said about a box of chocolates (and grading).

With the assumption that the pics are from the listing and are not flatbed scanned (and it's not trimmed as many seem to indicate), I gotta go with a 4.5 or 5. Looks pretty nice overall.

I'm going to be the realist here. Not trimmed, clearly a 4.5

I concur with the “not trimmed” answers. It just isn’t laying flat on the scanner as evident by how the “outline” printing is curving the exact same as the edges.
Should grade a 4 or 5 if there are no small surface wrinkles. |

Is it common the front, and back print is off in this manner? The front left border is narrow, and the back left is wide. The Right front border is wide, the back narrow. Opposite of each other.
I'm gonna say 2.5 Last edited by Vintage Vern; 04-06-2025 at 08:02 AM. |

Yep - Agree - and for whatever it's worth - Once a card is trimmed you pretty much can see the telltale "tits" sticking out on each of the trim side corners. (in my experience anyway).

Probably not trimmed; 3.5 from either either company.

I received the card today and I could see no signs of trimming. And it does present much better in person versus the listing pictures I posted. I just got done packing it up for PSA (express grading) and will drop it off at Fed Ex first thing tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed it comes back at least a 4. I think it has a real good chance for a 5.
