Summary

This is a beautiful promo card with stunning stained-glass artwork. The front is very clean with sharp corners and edges. The overall grade is primarily held back by minor specks of whitening on the back edges and corners, keeping it from Gem Mint status.

ROI

With the minor touches of whitening on the back, this card is a very strong candidate for a 9, but unlikely to achieve a 10. Given the raw value versus the graded value of a 9, the cost of grading may exceed the value added.
