Experts - Trimmed 59 Aaron?


This is being sold by someone who also has many 1959 PSA graded cards for auction at the moment, and at mostly 8s.
Does the bottom edge look trimmed? image

    There appears to be enough border all around. I believe the slight tilt makes it seem trimmed.

    Tough to tell whether its trimmed. I want to agree with lostdart about the tilt.

    I think it has a crease though, if you look under the T and the H in thrills.

    The seller lists the card as NM, making me wonder why he did not have it graded.

    A couple spots look like possible wrinkles. Maybe that's it.

    maybe the bottom right corner is a factory miscut and the card came back not gradeable so he's selling it raw but not disclosing the miscut from PSA

    The card looks bowed to me, which probably make it look a little trimmed. If pressed flat on a scanner bed or card holder, it would probably look better, but it still doesn't look any better than a 7 to me.
  • I hate to sound like a newbie, but I always wondered how trimming is performed. It can't be a simple as a straight edge and a razor blade.

    Who is the seller???
    I was burned on a sharp 59 raw from a seller that sold alot of graded cards. I tried getting it graded twice with no luck (factory Miscut) the card was slightly out of square. I would probably stay away...

    I agree also and believe it may have a crease as Bri states.
