Grade Shape
Four-axis score profile
The measured centering is essentially even on both sides and top-to-bottom on both the front and back, with only very small deviations from 50/50. That level of balance supports a top centering result.
Light wear is visible on the front corners, most notably a small nick/white break near the bottom-right tip and a faint patch of whitening at the top-right corner. The wear is minor and localized, which fits a strong corner result despite the slight inspection softness from glare.
Observed
A small white nick/whitening is present at the back edge near the far left end of the cut edge, while the remaining inspected edges are clean. The defect is minor and isolated, consistent with a strong edges result.
Observed
No surface defects were detected on the front or back card art scans, so the surface appears clean overall. Minor glare reduced inspection clarity in places, but there was still no reported scratching, dents, creases, or other surface wear.
Corners (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 Corner Wear (minor, front).
Bringing corners up to the level of the next-weakest axis (Edges, 9.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
