Original Magic the Gathering Singles
– LEGIONS RELEASE DATE: 2003
– Given the set release dated years ago, it is presently hard to find NEAR MINT to MINT conditions hence our STANDARDS for the cards that belong to this sets are slightly lower.

*CONDITION GUIDE: Near Mint to Mint (NM-M)
Most cards from the newest sets with a NM-M condition are straight from the pack. A NM-M card may have a tiny edge nick and possible a tiny scratch or two but is unused.

Slightly Played (SP)
The Slightly Played condition grade is usually only used on older or more valuable cards. Slightly Played cards will have a little edge wear from shuffling. The middle of the card will not have any whitening but may have a few small scratches.

Played to Slightly Played (PLD-SP)
Cards in PLD-SP are in at least Played and are often in Slightly Played condition. PLD-SP condition cards can have a moderate amount of wear from shuffling on the edges and possibly in the middle of the card. A PLD-SP card may also have some surface scratches and rarely a minor binder indention. Cards graded as PLD-SP will never have rips, creases, inked edges, or water damage. Cards that have been stamped from pro events are generally graded PLD-SP.
