Gemi Grade Report
XY Black Star Promos
Published August 28, 2026
This copy presents very strong centering and a clean surface, with the main visible wear limited to small front corner and edge nicks. Overall, the scan evidence supports a high-grade card with only minor border wear.
Grade Shape
Four-axis score profile
The card shows excellent centering on both sides, with the front measuring about 54/46 left-right and 53/47 top-bottom, which supports a perfect centering result. The back remains similarly balanced and well within a strong centered range.
Minor whitening and tiny nicks are visible on all four front corners, but the wear is subtle and low-confidence, with no corresponding back-corner issues. That light, localized corner wear is consistent with a slight reduction from a pristine corner result.
Observed
Two small front-edge nicks are present: one along the top edge near center-right and one on the right edge near the upper-right side. The wear is minor and limited to the front border, which fits a modest edge deduction.
Observed
No surface scratches, dents, creases, print lines, spots, or other surface defects were detected in the scans provided. The surface therefore supports a top result.
Corners (8.0) is the lowest of the four axes. It's the main thing keeping this card from a higher grade.
The limiting defect is Corner Wear (minor, front).
Bringing corners up to the level of the next-weakest axis (Edges, 8.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
