Subgrades
Centering
8.5
The front centering is excellent, exhibiting a very slight bias towards the left and top, approximately 55/45. The back is also well-centered, contributing positively to the overall grade.
Corners
8.5
All four corners are sharp and crisp, with only one or two exhibiting a microscopic touch of wear or a very faint, almost imperceptible, factory imperfection visible under magnification.
Edges
8.5
The edges are remarkably clean and smooth throughout, showing only a single, very minor instance of a tiny white fleck or a barely visible rough spot that does not detract from the card's eye appeal.
Surface
8.5
The card's surface is largely pristine, free of creases, indentations, or significant print defects. A very faint, superficial hairline scratch or a tiny, isolated print dot may be present but is extremely difficult to detect without close inspection.
Print Quality
8.5
The print quality is outstanding, featuring vibrant colors, sharp focus, and excellent registration. Minor, common factory print imperfections, such as a very slight wax stain or a tiny, isolated print spot, are present but do not impact the card's overall visual appeal.
