Charizard #1: rarity, grading and trend
Charizard #1 is a Rare Holo Pokémon card from Arceus, the Platinum era (2009). It ranks as number 8 by price out of 111 cards in the set, so it is one of the cards collectors chase when opening packs. A PSA 10 sells for about 162x the raw price, so centering and surface condition decide most of what a copy is worth. Its price has held almost flat over the last 30 days ($61.80 to $61.80). The illustration is by Kagemaru Himeno.
