Grade Shape
Four-axis score profile
The card shows very strong centering overall, with the front nearly perfect left-to-right and the back also close to balanced. The main deviation is a noticeable front top-to-bottom shift, but the back is much closer to even, supporting a strong centering result.
No corner wear was detected on either side, so the corners present cleanly and consistently. The corner scans support a pristine corners result.
Edge wear is limited to a small whitish nick along the left portion of the top edge on the front strip scan. The rest of the edges appear clean, so the result is supported by only minor localized wear.
Observed
No surface scratches, dents, creases, print lines, spots, foil wear, or other surface anomalies were detected in the available scans. The surface evidence supports a clean, defect-free result.
Centering (9.0) is the lowest of the four axes. It's the main thing keeping this card from a higher grade.
Bringing centering up to the level of the next-weakest axis (Edges, 9.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
