Summary
This 1994 Leaf Mario Lemieux is a premier example of the set. It narrowly misses a Pristine 10 due to a microscopic corner touch and a minor factory edge burr. The centering is elite for the era.
Subgrades
Centering
9.5
Front centering is exceptional, nearly 50/50. Reverse shows a negligible shift toward the top edge, preventing a perfect 10.
Corners
9.5
Upper right corner on reverse exhibits a microscopic touch of white visible only under magnification. All other corners are razor sharp.
Edges
9.5
Edges are extremely clean for a 1994 product. Minor factory roughness on the right edge (front) prevents a 10.
Surface
9.5
High-gloss finish is well-preserved. A single, faint hairline surface streak is visible on the reverse gold foil section under direct light.
Print Quality
10
Registration is perfect. No print dots or 'snowing' in the dark black areas of the jersey or background.
