Mint
Also known as: MT, M
Mint condition cards are as close to perfect as a card can be while still showing the faintest signs that it is not factory-sealed. A Mint card may have a nearly imperceptible surface scratch or a touch of corner wear only visible under magnification. In professional grading terms, Mint is approximately equivalent to a PSA 9. A card described as "Mint" by a seller should have sharp corners, clean surfaces, and excellent centering.
