Four-axis score profile
The card is essentially centered very well on both sides. Front centering is nearly exact left-to-right with only a slight top/bottom variance, and the back remains close to balanced as well.
Corners are strong overall, with only a small nick/edge break at the back bottom-left corner. The wear appears minor and localized to the perimeter rather than broad corner damage.
Observed
Edges show a small amount of wear on the back top edge, where a tiny white nick/break is visible with slight whitening into the blue border. The rest of the edges appear clean from the provided scans.
Observed
Surface quality is very clean overall, with only a tiny white spot on the back near the upper Pokémon logo. There is minor glare on the back scan that reduces inspection clarity in places, but the visible surface issue remains negligible.
Observed
What's holding this card back
Lowest axisCorners (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, back).
Bringing corners up to the level of the next-weakest axis (Edges, 9.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
