Summary

This card is in excellent condition, showing pristine front edges and surface. The primary limiting factors preventing a flawless grade are a slightly heavier left border on the back and a microscopic touch of white on the back bottom right corner tip.

ROI

PSA is slightly more lenient on centering for Gem Mint (allowing up to 60/40 on the front and 75/25 on the back), though the microscopic corner wear will likely land this at a strong PSA 9. Submitting to PSA maximizes the market premium for modern English Pokémon cards.
