    MC (Miscut):
    Cards that exhibit an atypical cut for the issue or ones that contain partial portions of more than one card will be designated "MC."

    The card certainly exhibits "an atypical cut", with or without creases.

    The seller appears to be reputable. Perhaps he did not expect to be taken so literally since the cut is so obviously atrocious.

    It's not miscut - it's trimmed.

    Another benefit is the card probably fits in the post-1956 plastic sheet pockets.

    I know. I was being sarcastic.

    Would ANYONE pay $300.00 for this card????????????

    A PSA 1 went for $256.00 it was creased up pretty bad but it was all there.

    Maybe I shouldn't try to figure anything out on Clemente cards a PSA 8 went for $12,750.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    At least the centering is good now.
    I'm building a 1968 and a 1970 Topps set. I have lots of 1970s and 1960s to offer in trade.

    It just surprises (amuses) me that the seller has been a dealer for over 10 years and just says the card was miscut.

    reminds me a little of the time I bought a storage unit which had a binder of all Nolan Ryan cards in order by years. As I hurried past the 70's to the 60's, BINGO!, there was a 1968 Ryan rookie. Unfortunately, there was no Koosman. Somebody had cut the card in half, just keeping the Ryan!image
