Summary

This card is in excellent pack-fresh condition with a pristine surface and very sharp edges. The main limiting factor keeping it from a perfect score is the top-to-bottom front centering, which is noticeably top-heavy.

ROI

Modern Illustration Rares perform best with PSA in terms of resale value and liquidity. While the centering is around 60/40 and may drop the grade to a 9, PSA is known to be slightly more lenient on centering than BGS. A PSA 9 or potential 10 would still yield a premium over raw.
