Is it me or does the bottom of that Cobb look trimmed? Seems like a little bat-eared. This is why super-high grade investment in ancient cards could be a risk (hope I don't derail this thread, just making an observation...)

Now that you point it out, I can see what you're saying -- bottom edge does look a little weird in the scan. Fortunately, in this case, I don't have the bankroll for super-high grade investment cards.

They ('14s) are paper thin so it wouldn't surprise me if it could have a bit of curvature in the slab.
