Value Explanation
This card's value is highly dependent on scarcity, historical significance, and player demand. High-grade (Grade 10) specimens carry massive multiplier premiums due to the difficulty of preserving physical conditions over time. Values are computed dynamically across multiple data streams including eBay sales and specialized trading portals.
Condition Guidelines
- Centering: Look for balanced borders on both front and back (50/50 to 60/40 is ideal).
- Corners: Check for physical damage, fraying, or layers splitting.
- Edges: Examine for whitening, chipping, or rough cuts.
- Surface: Watch out for micro-scratches, printing lines, and indentations.
