Recent Sales
Base Set 1st Edition Machamp in Near Mint condition regularly sells in the $40 to $70 range raw, depending on centering and exact corner wear.
Condition Details
The card exhibits sharp corners, minor edge wear typical of older vintage prints, and clean surfaces with minimal visible scratching on the holo foil.
Grading Recommendation
Worth grading if centering is strong and surface is clean, as a PSA 9 or 10 commands a significant premium over raw value.
