Collector notes

Condition. Check for centering on promo stamp and holo pattern, common flaws include edge whitening, surface scratches on foil, and print lines from promo distribution.

Storage. Use semi-rigid holders or top loaders with sleeves, store upright in cool, dry environment away from sunlight to prevent holo oxidation.

Authenticity. Verify black market stamp alignment and font on promo border, check holo pattern consistency against official scans, fakes often have blurry artwork or incorrect energy costs; graded/graded grading recommended.
