Parts of this scan are hard to inspect. Glare, overexposure, or low detail may reduce grading confidence.
Grade Shape
Four-axis score profile
Measured centering is the only notable weakness: the front is noticeably left-heavy at about 43/57, while top-to-bottom is essentially even; the back is close to left/right balance but sits around 56/44 top-to-bottom. That level of offset supports a strong but not perfect centering result.
Front and back corner scans show no visible corner wear, whitening, rounding, or damage. The corners present as clean and well-preserved.
Front and back edge strip scans found no edge wear, chipping, or fraying. The edges appear sharp and consistent throughout.
No surface scratches, dents, creases, print lines, spots, foil wear, or other anomalies were detected in the front or back art scans. A minor glare flag on the back slightly reduced inspection confidence, but no surface defects were identified.
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 (Corners, 10.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
