Grading advice needed

So the card pictured is the one in question, it looks absolutely perfect, but the picture is not that important because I only saw imperfections with a magnifier. It has 2 small dimples in the coating that you can only see with magnification. My question is will this small imperfection keep it from gemming? Not really visible to the naked eye.

    Thanks Parker. Anybody? Bueller?

    Technically a 10 is supposed to have no imperfections. So if you are seeing one under magnification, then I'd say no, it wont get a 10. With that said, they may have some sort of leeway with dimples in the coating, but I have no first hand experience. I'd say if you see an imperfection, assume that the grader would as well.

    Those were my thoughts exactly, but I too , have limited experience with the grading process

    But with that said, we've all seen 10s that looked like 8s or 9s and vice versa. A scan of your card would help too.
