CenteringCentering grades at 9.5. The right and top borders measure visibly thicker than the left and bottom borders when the card is viewed from the front, producing a minor but perceptible offset consistent with this grade tier.
CornersAll four corners are sharp and structurally intact, showing no whitening, fraying, peeling, or wear of any kind. Corner condition is consistent with a grade of 10.
EdgesAll four edges are clean and free of nicks, chips, fraying, or handling wear. Edge condition is consistent with a grade of 10.
SurfaceThe surface grades at 9.5. On the front of the card, within the flat holographic pattern, print lines and scuff marks are present that are consistent with print manufacturing defects. These production-origin blemishes are the sole basis for the deduction from a perfect surface grade.
