Which version do you have?

For the absolute cheapest way to own it, grab the Standard version for $1. The Refractor ($3) and w/ Coating ($1) offer minor variations, but these premium versions primarily provide slight aesthetic differences rather than significant scarcity. If you just want the card, buy Standard. If you desire a slightly different look, the Refractor is the next step up, but for saving money, stick to the base Standard.
