Hi everyone!

I’d like to ask you one question:

How much would you value a NM/MT holo bleed from english unlimited base set?

How hard are those to come by?

pics as examples

I know @mcrizz collects the unlimited edition Base Set holofoils with holo bleed, so maybe he can give an answer about what he paid for most of them on average. 😊 As far as I know he’s only missing one of them to complete his collection.

Thanks! i thought the might sell with a premium, how does a misprint like this take place? a missing layer? low ink?

the ones i have seen are easily recognizable without light and lens because the front looked “metallic”.

would you know a place were to look for them? i couldn’t find many on ebay.

thank you again for the answers 😁

I am going to be honest and say I know very little about how these occur. However, I will say that I am a personally fan of the “hidden treasure” aspect of them.

I also know that they are not easy to find because of how easily overlooked they can be. As a result, I have paid a slight (very slight) premium for them over their non-bleed counterparts.

Very cool to see some more of them out there… Thanks for Sharing!

The whole sheet holo cards are printed on is holo. There’s a white opaque layer added to make it so the non-holo parts of the card dont sparkle. The colour layers are added on top. If the white layer is not opaque enough, the holo sparkles will show through

Nice! So this explains why a whole box would have it. Very interesting, thanks !
