Grading Summary
This card shows strong overall preservation, with clean edges and only minor corner wear plus a small surface mark on the back border. Centering is solid, with a slight front bias but still comfortably within a high-grade range.

Four-axis score profile
Centering is strong overall. The front shows a modest left/right and top/bottom shift, while the back is closer to balanced, which supports the high centering result without indicating a major alignment issue.
The corners show several minor white nicks and small areas of wear at the rounded tips, most noticeably on the back bottom-right corner and with lighter wear on the other inspected corners. The wear is present but limited and mostly subtle, consistent with a strong corners result despite some back-scan glare reducing detail on the faintest areas.
Observed
The edges are essentially clean, with no edge wear detected on the front or in the main back edge strip. The only related mark is a short pale scratch on the back blue border that does not appear to break the cut edge, so the edge condition remains very strong.
Surface condition is very good, with the only notable issue being a short pale scratch on the back left border. Front and back art scans did not show broader surface problems, so the surface remains close to mint aside from that isolated mark.

What's holding this card back
Lowest axisCorners (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, back).
Bringing corners up to the level of the next-weakest axis (Centering, 9.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
