CenteringCentering registers at a grade of 9. The right border is measurably thicker than the left border, producing a modest but detectable offset in the horizontal axis. The variance is consistent with minor production misalignment and does not rise to the level of significant visual disruption, but it is sufficient to prevent a perfect centering score.
CornersAll four corners grade at 9.5. Minor fraying is present and, while it is not readily visible under normal viewing conditions, it becomes noticeable under magnification and bright directional lighting. The fraying is slight in extent and consistent with minimal handling or production wear at this grade tier.
EdgesThe edges grade at 9. Light fraying is present along effectively the full perimeter of the card. The fraying is very minor in severity but is distributed broadly across all edges and becomes clearly noticeable when the card is examined under angled lighting and magnification. This consistent, edge-wide fraying is the defining characteristic supporting the grade of 9.
SurfaceThe surface grades at 10. Both the front and reverse faces are free of scratches, creases, print defects, dents, surface scuffs, and print-line breaks. The surface presents in pristine condition with no imperfections detected.
