What to check before grading Scalding Tarn (Borderless) (Dragonscale Foil)
- Edges and corners: dark borders make chipping and corner whitening easy to see, and graders mark them down quickly.
- Foil curl: foils can bow over time, and a curled card is harder to grade high. Check it lying flat on a table.
- Centering: PSA 10 allows roughly 55/45 to 60/40 on the front and 75/25 on the back.
Measure the borders with the card centering calculator, or read the AI card grading guide.
