Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Near Mint (NM)
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $20.00 - $30.00; PSA 10: $70.00 - $90.00
Recent Sales
Recent eBay and TCGPlayer sales for NM copies range from $22 to $28. PSA 10 copies have recently settled around the $80 mark.
Condition Details
Based on the image, the centering appears slightly bottom-heavy. The surface and edges seem clean through the sleeve, with no visible whitening on the corners or major scratches, though a detailed out-of-sleeve inspection is required for a definitive grade.
Grading Recommendation
Only worth grading if the card is perfectly centered and flawless on the back. The moderate market value for raw copies means shipping and grading fees may exceed the value gain unless it achieves a PSA 10.
Card Description
Pierce: 40 damage. Glacial Lance: 200 damage. Discard 2 Energy from this Pokemon. Weakness: Metal (x2), Resistance: None, Retreat: 2. V rule: When your Pokemon V is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards.
Notable Features
Features unique story-driven 'Alternate Art' illustration by Mitsuhiro Arita, depicting Calyrex and Glastrier in a mountainous landscape.
Authentication Notes
The font, energy symbols, and border thickness appear consistent with authentic Sword & Shield era Pokemon cards. The texture (though blurry in photo) should be present on the actual card surface as a fingerprint-like etching.
