The card shows clean edges and corners from the front view. Centering appears slightly shifted towards the top border. No visible surface scratches or creases are apparent in the photo, though minor silvering on the edges is a common trait for this set.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The market value of the card does not justify the grading fees, as it is a common competitive staple rather than a high-end collector's chase card.

If this card has a Trap Card as Xyz Material: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; add 1 'Paleozoic' Trap Card from your Deck to your hand.

Notable Features
Includes the '1st Edition' stamp; features the classic Super Rare foil finish on the artwork only.
Authentication Notes
The font style, attribute symbol (WATER), and set coding (MP17) are consistent with authentic Konami manufacturing. The rosette pattern in the artwork and the 1st Edition holofoil stamp in the bottom right corner appear legitimate.
