Collector notes

Condition. Inspect centering on large holo pattern and alt art borders, check for print lines on cosmic background, surface scratches on foil common flaw, edge whitening from sleeves

Storage. Use semi-rigid holders or top loaders with cardboard inserts, store upright in cool dark place, avoid direct stacking under heavy cards

Authenticity. Verify holo pattern matches official with sharp starfield, check font kerning on 'Mew V', UV light reveals authentic foil glow, compare weight and thickness to confirmed real
