  3. Activate Phyrexian Altar by sacrificing the nontoken Gerrard, adding one mana of any color.
  4. Gerrard dies, triggering its ability.
  5. Holding priority, activate Phyrexian Altar by sacrificing the token Gerrard, adding one mana of any color.
  6. The token Gerrard dies, returning the nontoken Gerrard from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  7. Repeat from step 2.
  8. Resolve all Gerrard triggers, exiling it if it's in your graveyard and returning all artifacts and creatures that were put into your graveyard this turn to the battlefield.
