CenteringCentering is excellent, with only the most minor offset consistent with a grade of 9.5. The image registration falls well within acceptable tolerances on all four borders, reflecting a near-perfectly centered presentation.
CornersAll four corners present in near-pristine condition, with only minimal production wear consistent with a grade of 9.5. No whitening, fraying, or structural damage is present to a degree that would detract from the overall corner assessment.
EdgesThe edges exhibit minor wear consistent with a grade of 9. All four edges are otherwise intact, with no chipping, nicking, or roughness beyond light production-level imperfection expected at this grade tier.
SurfaceThe surface presents with minor wear consistent with a grade of 9. Both the front and reverse are free of any significant scratching, creasing, or print defects beyond slight production-level imperfection appropriate to this grade tier.
