Summary

This is a very clean modern promo card in excellent condition. The surface, corners, and edges are mostly pristine, but it is held back from a perfect grade by noticeable left/right centering shifts, particularly on the back.

ROI

The card is in strong Mint condition, but the off-centering on the back (roughly 60/40) makes a Gem Mint 10 unlikely. Given that this is a relatively low-value modern promo, the cost of grading will likely exceed the value added by a PSA 9 grade. It's best kept raw in a binder unless grading for a personal collection.
