Centering is strong overall and aligns with a 9: the front is modestly shifted left-to-right with roughly 59/41 proportions, while the back is close to balanced vertically and only mildly offset horizontally. The card still presents within high-grade centering range rather than perfectly symmetrical.

Corners support a 9, with the main issue being a small white nick at the front top-right corner tip/outer arc. The remaining corners appear clean, so the wear is limited and localized.

Edges merit a 10 because the edge strip scans did not show meaningful edge wear on either side. The only noted mark was a tiny detached white speck on the back border, which does not indicate actual edge damage.

Surface grades to an 8 due to a few small isolated white specks on the back blue areas, including one near the right-side swirl and another near the lower-right field. These are minor but visible surface blemishes, with no heavier scratches, dents, or creases noted.
