Default '55 Aaron - where does this grade?

I'd really appreciate your expert views on where this might grade...
I am pretty certain it is real, but if you think otherwise don't be shy...

Thank you !

4.5 or 5 if real. Looks so clean I'm not sure. Back looks right. Do you have it in hand to zoom in to the print pattern on the red name section on the front? I think it should be a solid block, and if it is, can likely be authenticated as real.

Default zoomed

thank you John. That is the grade i would assume as well..
under magnification, the red is solid...
I zoomed on the pic here:

I do not have another '55 with me, but the cardboard seems right in terms of thickness and weight, the edges look like cut-cardboard in terms of color and also rigidness. the size of the card is spot on....

Plus I've never seen fake '55s with that typical L/R centering shift for that year which measure correctly.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong (as I'm the furthest thing from an expert on this matter!)

I was thinking 4.5 before I saw John’s estimate.
