After seeing the current price of Gaea's Cradle on TCGplayer, I am no longer comfortable lugging my near mint copy around with me in my Selvala EDH deck.
I'd much rather pick up a Gold Bordered one for a couple bucks, and leave my real one at home in my expensive rare binder that has my old cards like Candelabra and Field of Dreams that have become stupidly expensive due to the secondary market.
This not for Tournament play, so I am not worried about the rules. I am asking this because I've heard the Gold Border cards have slightly different edges.
So if I swap my real Gaea's Cradle for this proxy, would I be able to feel the difference?
I use some gold-border cards, pretty sure their edges are the same. But Gaea's Cradle in gold border is still like $45 right now. Not much of a budget proxy...

Who the heck pays 45$ for a "gold" bordered Cradle ?

People are insane !
EDH players. Lots and lots of them. Got mine for $15 a while ago
EDH = casual format = gold borders don't matter
EDIT: Yes, OP, the square corner/gold border cards fit into normal sleeves, I haven't come across a brand of sleeves yet that they haven't fit into.
Well that's disappoint, I was under the assumption it was still $15. I think I am just going to drop using Gaea's Cradle. Fairy booty mana isn't worth a risking losing a card worth several hundred dollars.
