CenteringCentering grades at 9.5. On the front of the card, the image weight favors the right border noticeably relative to the left. On the reverse, the weight shifts to the left border and is similarly pronounced toward the top border. The variance is consistent with a centering grade of 9.5 and falls within acceptable tolerances for this tier, though the offset is detectable under direct inspection.
CornersAll four corners present in pristine condition. No whitening, fraying, soft bending, or wear is present on any corner under close inspection. The corners are sharp and structurally intact, fully consistent with a grade of 10.
EdgesEdges grade at 8.5. An indentation is present on the top edge of the card front, located toward the left side of that edge. The remaining edges are otherwise consistent with light handling wear appropriate to this grade tier. The indentation represents the primary defect influencing this subgrade.
SurfaceSurface grades at 8.5. The front of the card exhibits a small number of ink dots within the flat black holographic pattern of the card image. Additionally, the indentation noted on the top edge carries over and contributes to the surface assessment in that area. These combined factors are consistent with a surface grade of 8.5.
