Summary
This card earns a final grade of MINT+ 9.5, representing a superior example that approaches Gem Mint status. The card achieves perfect scores in Centering, Surface, and Print Quality, with virtually flawless presentation. The grade is moderated by the Corners and Edges, which each exhibit a single, minor imperfection per NGA guidelines: one slightly soft corner and one tiny edge nick, respectively. These minor flaws are minimal and do not detract from the card's exceptional overall eye appeal.
