Irregular Reflecetions

Fig. 1 | Spatial distribution of surface irregularities. Irregular reflections detected by structured-light 3D scanning plotted at ~80 μm resolution. Colour intensity indicates magnitude of angular deviation (yellow: high; purple: low). Only reflections exceeding the 95th percentile of the reference distribution are displayed. High local densities (greyscale contours) indicate spatially clustered surface defects. Gridlines denote physical card dimensions (cm).

Phi Metrics & Rank

Fig. 2 | Composite Φ score distributions by zone. Multiple photometric irregularity metrics were integrated through a proprietary pipeline to derive Φ scores (red). Surface and edge zones were analyzed independently to control for zone- and finish-specific optical variance. Reference distributions (grey; n = 100,000 simulated) were parameterized from empirical measurements of graded reference cards (n = 86–92 per zone and type). Vertical thresholds denote condition percentiles from 5th (damaged) to 95th (gem). Please note; displayed distributions and reference metrics are different for standard and holographic foil cards.

Centering/Alignment

Fig. 3 | Quantitative centering and border geometry. Left/right (LR) and top/bottom (TB) border ratios (red) derived from card edge and art border measurements at ~0.09–0.17 mm precision. Reference distribution simulated from all cards in the dataset (n > 200; n = 100,000 simulated).
