Summary
This 1990 O-Pee-Chee Wayne Gretzky #2 is a premier example. While the microscopic corner wear and a singular print defect prevent a Pristine 10, the elite edge quality and near-perfect centering justify a 9.5 Mint+ designation.
Subgrades
Centering
9
Front centering is strong, approximately 55/45 left-to-right. Reverse shows a slight top-heavy shift in the white border margins, preventing a perfect score.
Corners
9.5
Corners are exceptionally sharp. Only the bottom-right corner on the reverse shows microscopic white fibers under magnification.
Edges
10
Factory fresh edges with zero evidence of chipping or silvering. The O-Pee-Chee rough cut is non-existent on this specimen, providing a rare smooth-cut finish.
Surface
9.5
High gloss retention on the front. A single, minute print dot is visible in the white border area near the 'Edmonton Times' masthead. No scratches or wax stains detected.
Print Quality
10
Exceptional registration. The green and blue inks are vibrant and perfectly aligned with no bleeding or ghosting in the text blocks.
