Can anyone show me close ups of PSA 10s

Hi all,
I recently unpacked an Articuno holo from a 1st ed fossil pack and im looking to grade it. Hoping it gets a 10 or a 9 at least. imgur.com/a/JTlViYM

there’s thousands listed on eBay which you can use for reference :blush:

Yeah but they’re all encased in slabs. I was hoping someone had the pics before they were graded and it ended up grading a PSA 10.

Circled will very likely keep it from a 10, disregarding any other defects it has

If this is OP’s image, the circled is highly likely to knock it down, but it’s also an articuno, so watch for those print lines. Watch centering too, but you can measure that to know…

Oh ok, thanks for the insight everyone

The circled part by itself shouldn’t dock - I have seen and had PSA 10s with one bit of edgewear.

However, I think that circled part in combination with other observable condition issues (I.e. the edgewear on the back left plus tiny whitening on top left back corner, etc.) would preclude the card from gemming
