Why Gengar #17 is priced where it is

Gengar #17 is a Rare Pokémon card from Arceus, the Platinum era (2009). It ranks as number 7 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 71x 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 ($71.97 to $71.97). The illustration is by Mitsuhiro Arita.

Is it worth grading? Top-grade value stands far above the card's raw range, so grading has sound upside only for genuinely sharp examples. Examine the front finish under direct and angled light, since faint scratches or handling rub can undermine an otherwise clean-looking copy.

Artist-focused collections give number 17 a strong identity: Mitsuhiro Arita is one of the game's foundational illustrators, and his Gengar can be paired with Midori Harada's adjacent number 16. That side-by-side contrast highlights two interpretations within one expansion.
