Gemi Grade Report
Phantasmal Flames
Published June 21, 2026
This card presents very strong overall condition, with excellent centering, clean surface, and only light edge wear. The few tiny edge and corner marks are minor enough that they do not materially detract from the card's otherwise high-grade appearance.
Grade Shape
Four-axis score profile
The card shows excellent centering overall, with the front measuring essentially dead-on left/right and only a slight top/bottom shift, and the back also staying close to balanced. That level of alignment supports the top score assigned here.
Corner evidence is minimal, with only tiny possible whitening at the front top-left and top-right corners, both described as negligible and low-confidence. The very light, uncertain nature of those marks is consistent with a pristine corner result.
Observed
There are a few small edge nicks/whitening spots along the cut edges, including one on the front top edge and one on the back left edge. These are minor but visible enough to keep the edge grade just below pristine.
Observed
No surface scratches, dents, creases, print lines, spots, foil wear, or other surface anomalies were detected in the card art scans. The surface therefore reads as clean and fully supportive of the top score.
Edges (9.0) is the lowest of the four axes. It's the main thing keeping this card from a higher grade.
The limiting defect is Edge Wear (minor, back).
Bringing edges up to the level of the next-weakest axis (Centering, 10.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
