Is it worth grading? Given the moderate raw range and extraordinary premium attached to gem-mint copies, grading makes sense only after a demanding pre-screen. Holofoil scratches matter most, though back-edge whitening, corner touches, and print lines are equally capable of holding an otherwise attractive copy below the top tier.
