Summary

This is an exceptional, pack-fresh card with razor-sharp corners, clean edges, and a pristine textured surface. The primary limiting factor preventing a flawless score is minor left/right centering variation on the front and back.

ROI

PSA is famously more lenient on centering (allowing up to 60/40 for a Gem Mint 10 on the front). Given the flawless surface and corners, this card has a very strong chance of achieving a PSA 10, which provides the highest market multiplier.
