Summary

An exceptional pack-fresh card with pristine corners, edges, and surface. The only imperfection is the centering on the back, specifically top-to-bottom, but it falls well within the tolerance for a Gem Mint grade at most major grading companies.

ROI

This card is a prime candidate for PSA. PSA's centering standards for a 10 allow for up to 60/40 on the front and 75/25 on the back. This card's front is nearly perfect (~48/52) and the back (~65/35) is well within their Gem Mint guidelines. BGS might punish the subgrade more heavily, resulting in a 9.5.
