CenteringCentering grades at 9.5. On the front face, the image shift runs heavy to the right border and heavy to the top border. On the reverse, the shift runs heavy to the left border and heavy to the top border. The deviation is consistent across both faces and places the card at the upper boundary of the 9.5 tier.
CornersAll four corners are sharp and structurally intact, showing no whitening, fraying, tip wear, or delamination. The corners are free of any observable defects and present in pristine condition.
EdgesAll four edges are clean and well-defined, showing no nicking, chipping, roughness, or fraying along any border. The edges present in pristine condition with no observable defects.
SurfaceThe surface grades at 8, reflecting light handling wear consistent with that tier. Specific to the front face, silver specs are present on the lower portion of the image near the subject's leg and on the flat blue holographic foil running along the bottom of the front artwork. These surface disturbances are localized to the lower front face and are consistent with the assigned grade.
