I have seen this with every type of card imaginable, from Poler cards to
Baseball cards...:] ANd especially magic cards...

Thety aren;t worth anything extra... A small portion of the FASA print run
was fed through the cutter slightly off center, most likely... I had a
small portion of a Booster pack come like this (the commons in it,
fortunately).

Talk to FASA. They've been really cool about replacing miscuts and the
