Nice card.

If it was crimped, it would be the ultimate misprint.

Like 10-15; I believe that's what gamingjim sold them for on Ebay. I got my two for that much.

I think that is about 20 dollars.

I own several cards like that.
See the scans below, please.

Curiously enough I have a similar misprint and it's also from Odyssey (although English), only even stranger: it's square-cut FOIL and only the back is miscut (but both horizontally and vertically) and also upside-down. I'll post scans tomorrow. I know Fvzappa owns more of these.

On topic, even though these seem relatively common I value them way more than what others posted here.

I have a foil Cephalid Scout just like the one Ende73 posted. I bought it about 2 years ago from Troll and Toad for $8.

I also think they are much better misprints than that, but T&T isn't really known for bargain pricing these days. If they hadn't had them cheap I think I would have been willing to pay more like $100. Actually I may have gotten lucky - when I bought the card they had it listed as square-corner, upside-down back, but not miscut back, so I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the package.

So that means that T&T would trade their Summer Efreet for 2000 (two-thousand) of these in order to make a fair deal based on their prices... :-(

Sometimes they do have bizzarre pricing policies.
