Condition Details
Noticeable corner softness and rounding on all four corners; significant edge wear with visible whitening on the top-right and bottom edges; centering appears slightly shifted to the left; surface shows potential light scuffing.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The costs of grading ($15-$25+) far exceed the market value of the card in this condition. This is a common card from the 'junk wax era' with high supply.
