CenteringCentering is pristine. The image is positioned with no perceptible offset in either axis, and all borders are uniform and true. No deviation from center is detected.
CornersAll four corners present with minor production wear consistent with a grade of 9.5. No whitening, fraying, or structural damage is present to a degree that diminishes the corners beyond a single faint touch of wear under close inspection.
EdgesThe edges exhibit light wear consistent with a grade of 9. No chipping, nicking, or roughness beyond minor production-level wear is present along any of the four edges.
SurfaceThe surface exhibits a hairline scratch located on the reverse side, positioned below the compass and above the letter O. The scratch is noticeable under white light and magnification, and is also visible to the naked eye when the card is held at the appropriate angle. No additional surface defects are noted beyond this isolated imperfection, which is consistent with a surface grade of 9.
