CenteringCentering is excellent on both axes. Left-to-right and top-to-bottom registration fall within the tightest acceptable tolerances, with no perceptible deviation from center. No production misalignment is present.
CornersAll four corners are sharp and structurally intact, presenting no whitening, fraying, soft tips, or wear of any kind. The corners are consistent with a pristine, unhandled specimen.
EdgesThe edges present light wear consistent with a grade of 9.5. Two nicks are present on the right edge, one located toward the bottom-middle portion of that edge and one situated further down near the bottom-right corner. An additional nick is present on the bottom-left edge. All observations are referenced from the reverse face of the card.
SurfaceThe surface exhibits an otherwise clean presentation; however, a notable indentation is present within the green flat holographic pattern on the card front, situated toward the right side of that design element. The indentation carries sufficient depth and visual impact to constitute a meaningful deduction to the surface grade, resulting in a grade of 7.5.
