Why does everyone make threads of this kind without images?

The regular foil isn't worth much. Probably won't be much more

I'm gonna have to wait till I get home to upload the image. So it'll be a little bit.

The price of a misprint depends heavily upon both the severity of the misprint and whether the card in question has any inherent value. Because Celestial Archon has relatively little value as a card, it would have to have a particularly exciting misprint in order to gain a significant value.

Man that's blurry and huge, but there you go. It's sleeved and has light reflecting off of it but you can see that the image on the card is shifted up quite a bit. Just thought it was interesting to see a foil misprint even if it isn't worth anything.

It's probably not worth any more than usual. Most alignment issues don't add much, if anything, unless they actually show a portion of the next card on the print sheet

You might get between $4-10 for it because it's a foil misprint. Unfortunately, the misprint isn't severe enough to be considered highly desirable, and the card itself isn't that good. You're mostly looking for collectors, casual players, and Commander players on this one.

You might even be able to get it signed. Matt Stewart is one of the more common convention/event attendees, in my experience.
