Flaws to Note
The card appears to have centering issues with a heavy bias toward the right side border. There is visible softening/whitening on the top-right corner. Foilboard surfaces are highly prone to hairline scratches which are difficult to see without a loupe.
Selling Guide

eBay (as a Buy It Now/Best Offer), COMC, or Sportlots. This card is ideal for 'PWE' (Plain White Envelope) shipping to keep costs low for the buyer.
Selling Tips
Do not grade this card; the market value for a middle-relief prospect does not justify the $15+ grading fee. List with 'Arizona Diamondbacks' and 'Silver Foil' in the title. Use a penny sleeve and top loader immediately to prevent surface scratches on the delicate foil.
