Gemi Grade Report
MEP Black Star Promos
Published July 16, 2026
This card presents very well overall, with excellent centering, clean corners, and only minor edge and surface blemishes. The visible wear is light and localized rather than broad or heavy.
Grade Shape
Four-axis score profile
Measured centering is excellent on both sides, with the front and back staying very close to a balanced layout. The slight front/back offset is well within what supports a top centering result.
All four corners scanned clean with no visible corner wear or rounding issues. That supports a pristine corner result.
The edge scan shows a few small whitening points and nicks along the cut edge, including the far left corner area and two minor breaks elsewhere. These are light but visible edge flaws, which fit a modest reduction from perfect.
Observed
Surface evidence is very limited, with only a faint vertical light scuff/line on the back blue border near the center-right. The mark is minor and localized, so the surface remains very strong overall.
Observed
Edges (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 Edge Wear (minor, front).
Bringing edges up to the level of the next-weakest axis (Surface, 9.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
