Front
Centering Measurements
This card’s frame is a decorative foil or pattern, not an even printed border, so there is no border ratio to measure. Centering is not counted against the grade on a design like this. Perfect; the decorative foil-frame design has no even printed border for ratio measurement. Internal artwork and text placement show no clear shift toward an edge.
Back
Centering Measurements
Good; the back measures approximately 56/44 left-right and 52/48 top-bottom, with left-right limiting. The blue frame shows a slight horizontal shift.

Surface
10/10No analysis available
Analysis: The visible artwork and foil pattern appear continuous, with no confirmed handling defect. Strong reflections limit certainty, so the clean appearance is assessed only from the visible areas.

Location: back bottom-right corner
A small pale fleck is visible on the blue border at the lower-right corner cut.

Confidence Level: Moderate
Grade Uncertainty: ±2
Grade C — Fair
Moderate issues with glare, blur, or lighting during capture. Fine-detail assessment carries some uncertainty.
Raw Card — No Protective Case
Card photographed without protective covering. All features and defects fully visible for optimal assessment accuracy.
Grading confidence based on image clarity, protective case impact, defect detection certainty, and grade uncertainty.
