The issue stays 1990 · Score Canadian Hockey. These are research checks, not a condition assessment of a specimen.

Raw / ungraded

Match the issue: Match the full year or season, release, number and named edition to this reference. Ask for readable images of the actual item’s front and back.
Record visible condition: Inspect corners, edges, centering and surface in suitable photographs or in person. Record damage or unanswered questions without assigning a predicted professional grade.
Keep authentication separate: Ungraded does not establish authenticity or mean “never authenticated.” A protective case alone does not establish a professional condition grade.

Professionally graded

Read the complete label: Record the grading company, exact issue, card grade and any qualifiers or designation. Keep an autograph grade separate from the card’s condition grade. An authentication-only designation may have no numeric condition grade.
Compare the certification record: Use the company’s official lookup and compare its issue details and available images with the actual item, label and holder. A matching certification number alone does not establish that an offered item is genuine.
Compare within the stated scale: Retain the company’s exact grade name and number. Different companies and grade designations are not automatically equivalent; a numeric label does not establish a current price.

A source-linked reference or historical scan does not authenticate the card you are considering. CardRoster supplies no assigned grade, certification or price for it.
