Condition Details
The card is held in a top loader which makes surface scratches hard to detect. Centering appears slightly heavy towards the right border. Corners through the plastic look sharp, though standard paper insert stock is prone to minor edge whitening.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The Stars of MLB is a high-volume retail insert with a very high population. The cost of grading (approx. $15-$25) often exceeds the market value of the card unless it is a rare parallel or Chrome Redractor version.
