Condition. Inspect centering on Full Art holo patterns, check for print lines, edge whitening, surface scratches on glossy finish, and corner wear; common flaws include holo bleeding and surface scratches from promo packaging.

Storage. Use semi-rigid or top-loader holders with sleeves, store in cool, dry environment away from sunlight to prevent holo fading, avoid stacking without dividers.

Authenticity. Verify set symbol (SV-151), card number 038/165 or promo stamp, holo pattern alignment, font consistency; fakes often have blurry art or incorrect weight; use UV light for holo authenticity and check pop reports on graded/graded.
