It's not graded and its in Cooperstown.

isn't PSA's entire notariety based upon the fact that they graded this card ? there's noway it will ever be determined to be trimmed by anyone associated with PSA or any of the auction houses that sold this card over the years. The trimming story has been circulating since Gretzky owned the card , perhaps even before then.

So what's the difference between hand cut or hand cut then trimmed?

In this case, about $2,775,000.

Regarding T206DK's......"The trimming story has been circulating since Gretzky owned the card,

Perhaps 1987......when I, and many other dealers at the Willow Grove Show first saw this card.
Of course, it was ungraded back then and we were able to examine it close up. The consensus
of most, who saw it that weekend, was that it was trimmed.
