Grading Summary
This Charizard presents well overall, with strong centering, clean corners, and only light edge and surface imperfections. The main grade impact comes from minor edge nicks and a few faint surface marks rather than any major wear.
Flags
Image Quality
Strong vertical lighting glare across the lower half and a bright hotspot near the upper left border. It obscures some surface detail and could affect inspection.

Four-axis score profile
Centering is strong overall, with the back nearly even and the front showing a mild left/right skew and slight vertical imbalance. The measured offsets are small enough to support a high centering result despite the front being a bit heavier on one side.
Corners appear clean in the scan evidence, with no reported wear or tipping on either side. That supports a pristine corner result.
The edge score is held back by several small nicks and chips along the cut edges, including minor interruptions on the front top and left sides and a tiny nick on the back bottom edge. The wear is light and localized, but it is visible in multiple places, which fits an 8.
Observed
Surface remains in very good condition, with only tiny isolated specks on the front and faint vertical print lines on the back. A front glare flag notes that some surface detail is harder to inspect, but the observed flaws are minor and localized, consistent with a high surface result.

What's holding this card back
Lowest axisEdges (8.0) is the lowest of the four axes. It's the main thing keeping this card from a higher grade.
The limiting defect is Edge Wear (minor, front).
Bringing edges up to the level of the next-weakest axis (Centering, 9.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
