Charizard Card : List And Most Expensive
Charizard Card: Time is a circle, and it feels like only yesterday that I was in junior high, spending my weekly allowance on Pokémon cards.
Now, Pokémon cards are all the rage again, with people opening them on Twitch streams and on YouTube videos, and it turns out that some of those cards you got as a kid may be valuable today if you kept them…and kept them in good shape.
It’s difficult to get out of the quagmire of determining the exact value of all Pokémon cards, so I decided to focus on one type of card that was highly prized when I was a youngster.
I stored it because I “thought it would be worth anything eventually,” and I was correct. Well, that depends on whatever version you’ve got.
Charizard Card of List And Most Expensive
Table of Contents
Here’s a graph showing which Charizard cards from the old school are the most and least valuable. It’s difficult to come up with exact statistics for selling prices. For the rarest Charizard editions, the low end could be a few hundred dollars, while the high end could be tens of thousands of dollars, if not over $100,000 for genuine perfection.
The prices listed below are approximations, and there is a broad variety of prices. If yours isn’t included at all, it’s probably too common to be worth much. In order to see these pricing ranges, these cards are usually PSA 9-10 rated, which means they must be in excellent condition and not just lying in a shoebox someplace.
Prerelease 2016 Pokémon XY Staff Charizard Card ($2K-$3K)
There aren’t many of these because they were given out as limited edition event promotional items. Because of the labelling, it’s rather easy to recognise, yet it’s fairly uncommon.
Charizard Reverse Holo, 2002 Legendary Collection ($4K-$6.5K)
I completely forgot about Reverse Holos, but they’re really less valuable than the more common ordinary holo in this set.
Charizard Holo ($8K-$13K) from the 2002 Legendary Collection
This is the “normal” holo version, which is significantly more expensive than the reverse. You must again seek for the Legendary medal on the right side, as it is a different card without it.
Japanese Charizard Holo ($9K0$13.5K) from 1996
This is the first Japanese set in existence, and it differs from the 1999 design, which will be valued less because it did not have horizontally aligned energy requirements and will be worth less.
Mint Charizard Holo (1999) ($15K-$30K)
Now we’re getting into the ones you might have, and I happen to have this one. The lack of darkness surrounding Charizard’s box border indicates that this was a very early run, which is what makes it valuable.
Mint Charizard Holo, First Edition, 1999 ($25-$150K)
And what can you do to improve it? It also has a first edition badge, indicating that it is from the very first English printing. There is no border shadow this time. This is the current form of Charizard that collectors are most interested in, so make sure you check to see if you have one.
The market is ridiculous right now, and you’ll see weird items like Charizards for $200K on Ebay and other places. You can sell yours, but given the present craziness, it may be a lengthy process. Good luck, or wait on for another 20 years and see where things end up.
