CenteringCentering is excellent across both axes. The left-to-right and top-to-bottom balance meets the criteria for a perfect grade, with no perceptible drift from center. No centering-related deductions are warranted.
CornersAll four corners are sharp and structurally intact, presenting no whitening, fraying, creasing, or wear of any kind. The corners are consistent with a perfect grade.
EdgesThe edges exhibit minor fraying consistent with a grade of 9.5. This light edge wear is minor in nature and does not rise to the level of a more significant deduction.
SurfaceThe surface presents minor print lines and minor ink dots localized within the hollow foil area on the card front. These imperfections are very minor in nature and are discernible only under bright light and magnification. The defects are consistent with a surface grade of 9.5 and do not represent handling damage.
