Common mistakes
On Urza's Legacy, the usual miss is skipping authenticity on duals and early rares.

Also: Urza's Legacy (1999, early Magic) gets mixed into lots that are not the same product — match set code ulg before the art.
What to check first
First: set symbol / copyright line before comps. On Urza's Legacy / Grim Monolith, do condition under light before grade talk. Then use the Urza's Legacy checklist for gaps — sealed is not a plan for the expensive row.
