Hi and Welcome.
Since I'm the Specialist of Misprints ;) ;D :D
I have seen one of this Card already,I will say that this kind of Misprint is pretty Rare,since most of the others,what we call Albino Card,it's the front or both and not Only the back.For the value,I will say from 50$ to 150$,andif a Misprint Collector really wants it maybe more.Hope this help.

I would say you shall not let this one go for less than $50. You should get offers from $50 to $100 for this card.

Albino cards are extremely rare and this is the first one I see albino on the Back.

Eric.

I've seen these in an auction on ebay.  It was a huge lot of misprints this guy had collected.  Had some cool misprints (one was a beta granite gargoile that was not only crimped, in the middle of the card mind you, but the upper part of the card had been cut by the sealing of the pack.  It looked really cool.)  Anyway, the set had some albinos and really interesting stuff.  Went for over 500 dollars I think.  In any event, I'm pretty sure these guys are legit rarities.  I even saw in his collection one card that was only b/w in one bubble area.

I have seen these at ProTour Chicago in dealer cases before.  They do exist.

A card that has been in the sun too long ends up blue and white, not black and white.

Damn, I have one of those, and I was going to ask if it was worth anything.  It's a Spike Breeder, and it's crumpled up a bit too.  Must've been in the sun too long.

I also have a Beta Ankh of Mishra with a tiny piece taken off of 1 corner that the previous owner says came out of the pack like that.  Anyone have any ideas about that?

no idea, but that's a good way to make 2 ankh of mishra's out of one.  I swear, it came out of the pack ripped in half.  I found the other half in another booster.

I opened a Visions pack once that had a Phyrexian Walker with a small section in the middle scraped off somehow. Like someone put on a piece of really sticky tape and yanked it off, taking the card with it. But I opened the pack myself, so...
