Is it worth grading? Grading premiums for this card show a large gap between raw copies and PSA10 examples, reflecting how much surface and edge wear factors into desirability. Because Special Illustration Rares use large uninterrupted art panels, even minor print lines or whitening can affect the final grade. Collectors often note that centering variance is one of the more common reasons this card misses a top grade.
