A specific trading card, featuring a particular Pokmon character from a designated expansion set, that has achieved the highest possible grade from a professional authentication service. This grading reflects the card’s near-perfect condition, assessed based on centering, edges, corners, and surface. As an example, consider a card without any visible flaws, sharp edges, and precise alignment, resulting in the designated numerical score.
The item holds significant value due to its combination of factors: the popularity of the character, the collectibility of the set, and its pristine condition as verified by a reputable grading company. The convergence of these elements creates rarity and desirability among collectors, potentially leading to increased market value. Its historical relevance stems from its representation of a specific era within the trading card game’s lifespan, reflecting trends and demand at the time of its release.
