I submitted this item to PSA for grading and received a Mint 9 rating. After it was returned, I immediately placed it in a sleeve and stored it in a dark, humidity-controlled storage case. Although it has been PSA 9 graded, please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about minor imperfections, to avoid any potential issues. Please be aware that the outer grading case may have initial scratches. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. If you would like to negotiate the price, please state your desired amount in the comments. Please note that I may not be able to lower the price on some items. *I may cancel transactions with users who have negative feedback. Also, returns are not accepted to prevent item substitution.
