Beautiful card. Congrats. That focus on a 51B Mantle is quite rare and special. At a casual viewing distance I also do not notice corner wear; what I notice is image quality and centering. I would prefer to look at that card in a wall case than a blurry PSA 7. Tangentially, a high grade card stands a good chance of having been "worked," in my opinion, and likely the most common thing worked is a corner.
