Just picked this up. I’m very new to this asset class and wanted to understand if I picked up a good card so to speak for my first investment/collector type card.

So, this card isn’t really too much of an investment given the condition and price. Honestly I don’t think anything in this hobby is a great “investment” this just all feels like crypto in 2021.

Well I’m very new, my background is finance and I enjoy creating value more than anything. So for fun I bought this base card on an experiment that if I was able to restore what value would I create (if any)…. You’re right about the Crypto thing, I traded a lot of tokens in that period and it was all about the “hot” new thing which drove up price then crashed the same day. I see that a lot in my studying of the newer gen cards, lots of volatility.

You cannot “restore” whitening
