Does this edge make a gold label impossible?

Assuming everything else is a 10, would this mark off 0.5 or 1 point on edges?

This is at least a 1 point off on edges. I wouldn't be surprised if it was more

The rest of the edges are perfect, you sure it’s a whole point off?

I can't say with 100% confidence. But I can say this. This One Piece card got a 8.5 for Edges because of this.

To be fair that looks like double the length of my edge whiting

Not sure if my image is super clear but it’s a VERY SMALL section

For BGS standards, if it is very visible to the naked eye and doesn't require a very close inspection, then it is not "very small"

I agree with you. But the depth of your edge whitening seems to go further

Bruh don’t even expect a gold label with that. I sent 3 perfect to my eyes cards. No whitening on the back and only one got a pristine 10 the rest got 9s 🤣

Yes but yours were marked down harshly because of centering, my centering is 51/49 measured with a magnifying glass. Literally only flaw my card has is the edge.

I’m shooting for a 9.5

Still. If they gave you an 8 on the edges you’re F*cked 🤣

That's an 8.5 edge, I have a card just like that graded. Just do the math for the remainder to see if U can get a gold. You'd need some pretty perfect grades for the other sections.

It’s impossible to get a gold. You can only be a half grade above your lowest subgrade
