Hey there everybody, it's been a while since I've posted and I wanted to share a new foiling error with you guys.
So I got this collection in yesterday, and I was just putting it away when I noticed a small error with a lined foil Spectacular Battle.
Here's the card.

If you look very closely above the U in Spectacular you can see what appears to be a small diagonal scratch; here's a closer look. i.imgur.com/5MqgEYx.jpg
However, it's not a scratch, but an actual break in the foil. Normally that's not uncommon, you'll get breaks in the foiling sheets but that is 100% of the time a horizontal or vertical line. But this is the first I have ever seen of a card with a diagonal line break in the foiling.
Here's a very high resolution scan of it that will illustrate it further; i.imgur.com/u4kIKcx.jpg
You can see in this that there's an additional error below the gap between the words spectacular and battle on the rim of the divider between the picture and the event card coloring.
This scratch is not on the surface, it's perfectly smooth to the touch. In addition, the foiling where the "scratch' divides does not line up with the top and bottoms.
