A while back I submitted a good number of these cards to be graded. Quite a few came back min size without a grade. This card looks to me to be obviously short in the slab. There's only one edge that can be trimmed. Can't really cut it on the perforated sides without it being very noticeable. I don't know at what part of the process these sheets get trimmed to fit the magazine. This card being on the bottom of the sheet seems to fail min size often. This one got a 6 though.

forgot where i read it, but had to do w the 96 sifk tiger woods card. quite a few were cut on all four sides. learned right then and there not to let perforated cards fool me. they can be trimmed. sure enough there were pictures of true perforations vs the trimmed version. the perforations looked quite different and a different amount of total perforations per side. never underestimate the ingenuity of a scammer. not saying this is the case above w the hawk at all.
