Condition Details
Centering appears top-heavy (bottom border is thicker). Minor edge whitening visible on corners. Surface scan shows potential light scratching under the purple lighting, but overall clean surface with no visible creases.
Grading Recommendation
Worth grading if the surface is flawless. This is a "Shadowless" variant, which is more valuable than Unlimited. Estimated grade: PSA 7 or 8 due to centering and minor corner wear.

Authentication Notes
The font style, HP text weight, and copyright dates (95, 96, 98, 99) match authentic WotC Shadowless prints. Colors appear correct, though distorted by blue/purple ambient lighting.
