Measured centering ratios
This is a visually appealing vintage Base Set holo Alakazam with respectable centering and no major structural damage, but it has clear real wear. The main issues are scattered corner/edge whitening and noticeable front holo scratching, while the back remains comparatively clean. Overall it presents like a solid Near Mint vintage holo rather than a Mint/Gem Mint example.
Dominant grade limiter
Surface is the lowest measured condition area in this report.
[scan_artifact] Programmatic centering data was unavailable with 0.00 confidence, so measurement override applied and visual assessment used. Front appears modestly right-heavy with slightly thicker left border and near-balanced top/bottom; estimated around 56/44 L-R and 53/47 T-B. Back shows similar mild right shift, approximately 56/44 L-R and 52/48 T-B. No obvious diamond cut is apparent. Centering passes PSA 10 standards, but is short of ideal BGS Pristine-style symmetry.
All four corners show real, low-level wear rather than scan illusion; the pattern is asymmetric and supported by original, edge detection, and inverted views. Wear remains in the light-to-moderate range with no creasing, splits, or major dings, but the card is clearly not gem-mint at the corners.
Edge wear is the primary limiting factor. Both sides show genuine localized whitening and minor chipping/roughness, with the reverse bottom edge the most impacted area. This is more than a single tiny flaw, but still comfortably within mid-mint territory rather than heavy wear.
Front holo surface wear is meaningful and clearly exceeds mint-level expectations, while the back surface is relatively clean with only light handling scuffs. Factory holo print lines are present but not penalized. The front surface is the second major grade limiter after edges/corners.
Deterministic PSA final from locked subgrades: corners 8.5, edges 8, surface 7.5. The weakest anchoring condition area is surface at 7.5, anchoring the grade at 7. Measured centering qualifies for the PSA 9 tier. PSA final is the lower of the two: 7; our predicted range: 6-8, likely 7.
Normalized from locked BGS subgrades: centering 9, corners 8.5, edges 8, surface 7.5. The weakest anchoring area is surface at 7.5. Because only one anchoring subgrade is lowest, the BGS final can be at most 0.5 above that lowest subgrade. Deterministic BGS final: 8; our predicted range: 7.5-8.5, likely 8.
Estimated from our locked subgrades scaled onto TAG's 1000-point scale: centering 900, corners 850, edges 800, surface 750. The weakest anchoring area is surface at 750. This is a BGS-equivalent estimate derived from our subgrades, not a reproduction of TAG's methodology; TAG's proprietary photometric grading may score the card differently. Estimated TAG final: 800; our predicted range: 750-850, likely 800.
Confidence is medium because the scan set is strong for edges, corners, and general surface review, but flatbed-style imaging still limits certainty on very fine micro-scratches and exact depth of holo wear. Centering had to be estimated visually because contour-based measurements failed.
Worth grading if you want an authenticated vintage holo in a respectable holder, but it is unlikely to achieve a top-tier mint grade. PSA is probably the most favorable option for market value and tolerance profile; BGS/TAG are likely to expose the edge and surface wear more harshly.
This is report guidance, not a guaranteed grading or financial outcome.
Best case means the upper end of this image-based estimate range, not a promised official result.
Condition-only company signal: BGS has the higher numerical likely-case estimate among the current CardRevive middleman houses this report can estimate. That condition-only comparison does not account for final fees, turnaround, authentication, resale demand or differences between company standards.
A stronger estimate would first require better condition evidence in surface. Front holo surface wear is meaningful and clearly exceeds mint-level expectations, while the back surface is relatively clean with only light handling scuffs. Factory holo print lines are present but not penalized. The front surface is the second major grade limiter after edges/corners. A clearer scan can reduce uncertainty, but it cannot remove genuine wear or guarantee the next official grade.
The highest likely-case AI estimate here is BGS 8. Submitting is financially worthwhile only if the expected graded value, less grading, shipping and selling costs, exceeds the card's raw value and your risk tolerance. CardRevive does not know those market inputs from this report alone.

These grades are an AI estimate, not an official grade. CardRevive is not affiliated with PSA, BGS, or TAG and cannot issue official grades. A grading house makes the official authentication and slab decision. CardRevive can separately coordinate an independent middleman submission when the evidence-qualified panel above identifies an appropriate commercial route.
CardRevive may offer some account holders a fixed grading credit for keeping qualifying reports public. Any publication incentive is independent of the estimated grade or report content and may affect which owners choose to publish.
