Recent Sales

Condition Details
Noticeable corner rounding and softening, edge chipping on the black borders, surface wear, and a visible vertical creasing or indentation line on the left side of the card.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading due to the heavy edge wear and visible crease/indentation, which would result in a low technical grade that does not justify the grading fees.
