Nice work.



That would just be a reprint though right? I'd like to get one myself seeing as the real thing is pretty pricey.

Nah not a reprint it's original
It's in very good shape too, just a pinhead touch of white on bottom left corner, apart from that it's a beautiful card.

Really? Well done.

It does look in incredible shape, which is why I'd question it's authenticity, why would someone not grade that? With that centering it looks a minimum psa 9.

How much did it cost if you don't mind me asking? And where from? Might be pack fresh and ready to grade.

 

[edac6942]

Cost me $310us
I agree it's pack fresh because next to my bccg10 the ungraded one is slightly brighter not faded.
I've never sent anything for grading so I might put it up for auction soon, but for now I'll just enjoy having it, seeing as they sell for about $600us or something.

How is the overall size, to me the borders look a little narrow.

Haven't measured, I don't even know what they are supposed to measure.
Would measurements vary or are they all exactly the same.

Oh dear, I think you've been had.

Centred and colourful with excellent corners, that would be a chance at a bgs 9.5 and they sell for about $5k.

Why would you not grade it if it's legit? That's a huge payday if real.

Epic addition mate.

Well even if its untrimmed it wouldn't grade a 9.5 because of that corner. Like I said it's very small but noticeable.

Looking at the psa 9s out there this would be a great chance. They start at $2.5k.

You'd be silly not to grade it if you think it's legit.

Alarm bells are ringing a bit though, the fakes are well known to have a brighter colour than the originals.

Where did you find this card?

From US.
I've had 3 rookies before that's why I think its real.

 

[parra lettics]

Wow I want one !

 

[penny collector]

Very nice card, impressive stuff!

Slabbing and grading is what it is all about man - if it's legit and in that good a condition you've bagged yourself an absolute bargain. I wouldn't be brave enough or confident enough to go near one without being able to look at it closely in hand - but that;'s also why I'll never land a bargain! Pretty sure one of the tests is if you can see the white (pupils) in the Bulls eyes on the card reverse.

I'm very confident it's real.
