Front

Centering Measurements
Perfect centering: front left/right ratio is approximately 52/48 and top/bottom ratio approximately 54/46, both within the 55/45 threshold. The yellow outer border remains comparatively even around the illustrated panel.
Back

Centering Measurements
Perfect centering: the back is approximately 52/48 left/right and 54/46 top/bottom. The blue frame shows only a subtle border imbalance without a meaningful centering shift.

Corner Close-ups (Front)
Corners
8/10The upper-left yellow corner retains defined geometry, with no clearly resolved fiber exposure or lift visible through the holder.
At the upper-right yellow corner, the tip remains substantially intact; holder glare limits confirmation of minute edge fibers.
The lower-left yellow corner appears mostly pointed and flat, with no definite rounding or structural separation visible.
The lower-right yellow corner shows slight softness at the tip compared with the adjacent straight edges, without a visible bend.
Analysis: The front corners are generally intact, but the lower-right tip shows minor softening and the holder limits inspection of the smallest fibers. No lifted or bent corner is visible. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 8/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
8/10The top yellow edge is straight overall, with a few small pale interruptions near the upper-right section.
The bottom yellow edge remains continuous but shows faint localized wear near the lower-right corner.
The left yellow edge appears comparatively clean and straight, with no clearly resolved chip or exposed core.
The right yellow edge shows light wear along portions of the perimeter, especially toward the lower half.
Location: front right edge
Continuous rough light exposure is visible along the outer right cut edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Front edges remain structurally straight but contain several close-inspection pale interruptions in the yellow coating. The right edge and lower perimeter show the most visible wear. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 8/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Surface
7/10No analysis available
Location: lower-right artwork area near the red and purple ground
Lower-right front artwork → irregular pale surface abrasion visible across the printed ground → small localized patch with a short linear component → light mark contrasts with the red, purple, and dark green artwork.
Analysis: The front surface is limited by a visible localized abrasion in the lower-right illustration, while broad bright bands are consistent with holder glare rather than card damage. The remainder of the printed Machop artwork appears intact.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
7/10The physical top-left back corner, corresponding to the upper-left card corner, shows a small pale interruption against the blue frame.
The upper-right back corner remains mostly square, with a faint light spot at the outer blue edge but no structural lift.
The lower-left back corner is visibly rounded slightly at the blue frame and does not retain the same crispness as the top corners.
The lower-right back corner shows a small pale edge fleck while remaining attached and flat.
Location: back top-right corner
A small white exposed fleck is visible on the blue border near the upper-right edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Back-corner condition is limited by visible wear at multiple blue-border corners, most notably the lower-left corner's rounding. No corner lift, fold, or bend is visible. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 7/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
7/10The top blue edge has a few distinct pale flecks, particularly toward the right side of the card-relative edge.
The bottom blue edge is mostly intact but carries small pale marks near both lower corner transitions.
The card-relative left back edge appears straight with limited localized whitening near the upper section.
The card-relative right back edge shows the clearest scattered whitening along the blue border, without delamination.
Location: back right edge
Continuous pale, rough-looking exposure runs along the outer right cut edge against the dark blue border.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Back-edge wear is more pronounced than on the front, with multiple visible pale flecks and the strongest whitening along the card-relative right edge. The edges remain attached and straight, with no tear or delamination. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 7/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Surface
8/10No analysis available
Location: back lower-right area of the surface
A small exposed white fleck is visible along the bottom cut edge near the lower-right portion of the region.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: The back surface is comparatively clean based on the visible evidence, with reflections treated as photographic or holder glare. No structural crease, dent, or distinct surface scratch is confirmed.
