Card condition guide

We assess single cards for visible wear on both sides, edges and corners. The stated condition describes the physical card.

Near Mint (NM)

Close to new, with at most minimal handling marks. No obvious wear or damage.

Excellent (EX)

Light handling wear, particularly on edges or corners; the card still looks clean.

Good (GD)

Noticeable edge or surface wear, such as whitening or scratches.

Light Played (LP)

Clear, more extensive play wear. More worn than Good.

Played (PL)

Heavy wear or damage from extensive use.

Poor (PO)

Severely damaged, for example with major creases, tears or water damage.

Catalogue images show the card design, not the condition of the copy you receive. Our own photographs show the offered card; also read the description for disclosed damage.

Near Mint does not mean perfect or guarantee suitability for a high grading score. This is a visual condition assessment, not professional grading or a guarantee of any PSA, BGS or CGC score.
