  • Description

    This card has been professionally graded by Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA) and sealed inside of a protective plastic case.

    A “grade” is a numerical value that a paid expert assigns to a collectible trading card after it has been thoroughly examined from every angle and determined that it is original and unaltered. The PSA grade number corresponds to the quality of the card's condition.

    PSA authenticates both sports and non-sports trading cards across all eras. A series of PSA experts review the card for authenticity. If genuine, PSA looks for evidence of doctoring, such as re-coloring or trimming. PSA experts then grade the condition of each card on a scale of 1-10, with 10 being best. After grading, the card is encapsulated in a tamper-evident, sonically-sealed case. These hard plastic cases provide protection from pressure and most damage. A label within the case displays the card's pertinent information and unique certification number. PSA-certified trading cards often sell for premium prices due to the strength and credibility of the PSA brand. PSA has certified many of the most valuable trading cards in the world. These are sought after by serious collectors world-wide. Top graded cards are often worth, as well as sell for, staggering amounts of money.

    1st Edition Stamp Version

    English Base Set 1st edition cards are known to have been printed with multiple "1st Edition" stamp versions. Known versions that are not misprints or errors are "2D-Thick", "2D-Thin", "3D-Thick", and "3D-Thin". 2D and 3D refer to the white outline of some letters in the 1st Edition symbol stamp. In the 3D stamp the letters "E" and "ITION" have a white outline (the letter 'D' does not) giving a "lifted off the page" look to it. The amount of white outline on the 3D stamps can vary - some have very little & are hardly noticeable while others have more & are very noticeable. In the 2D stamp NONE of the letters have a white outline, all letters are pure black ink. Thick and Thin refers to the width of the number "1" inside the 1st Edition symbol stamp. Thick stamps have a number "1" that is wider while the letters "Edition" around the stamp are printed THINNER and less bold. Thin stamps have a number "1" that is skinnier while the letters "Edition" around the stamp are printed THICKER and more bold.

    This card is a (3D-Thick Stamp) version were the 3D outline is PROMINENT.
