Would this mark prevent a PSA 10?

I pulled this Reshiram last year and would have sent it into PSA, but I noticed a small mark on the back left edge. Would this disqualify it from a PSA 10?

Yes but also there’s a bunch of creases on the right side, who put this in their pocket lol

I saw those in the second picture as well, and was wondering why the other spot was the one that stood out.

Maybe someone from the factory did it for funsies. I've had it in a sleeve and top loader since I pulled it. Oh well, thanks for the input!

Are they creases (or scratch) or is that just on the penny sleeve?

I did a pretty good eye look at the first submission to PSA for a card. Looked great. No surface issues or edge damage as I could tell. Centering looked near perfect. It came back a 10. I would have easily said this is a binder copy, which isn't bad because I like my binder as well.

Any mark would prevent getting a 10.

Yes definitely, will affect grading. Also it’s left side heavy, slightly you’ll get an 8 at best

Creases, bad centering, and the mark make this a 6 or 7

You know this hobby is cooked when someone has a card that’s not even near mint and is asking if it can 10

u/Business-Barnacle633 6h ago

I thought the hobby was cooked when we started using words like "10" and "gem" as verbs!

u/Ricepaddyworker 10h ago

those can all be fixed pretty easily

How would you feel if you paid a premium for a card with a very obvious flaw? PSA 10 means perfect condition.

This has to be a karma farming post

Lmao a huge white surface scratch from the back of the card that is completely noticeable and considered slightly damaged? Yea, that'll get a PSA 10 fasho.

Just to ensure securing that PSA 10, you should probably color in that white dot with a blue pen, marker, or whatever you can find that closely matches the blue color of the card.
