What sets the price of Charizard #4

Charizard #4 is a Rare Holo Pokémon card from Base Set 2, the Base era (2000). It ranks as the most valuable card out of 130 cards in the set, so it is one of the cards collectors chase when opening packs. A PSA 10 sells for about 42x the raw price, so centering and surface condition decide most of what a copy is worth. Over the last 30 days the price fell -6.0%, from $438.38 to $411.95. The illustration is by Mitsuhiro Arita.

Is it worth grading? At this raw value level, grading is already worth considering, and the steep gem-mint premium makes exceptional copies especially compelling. Large holofoil scratches, print lines and back-edge whitening are decisive; even minor corner wear can separate a strong binder copy from a top grade.

Nostalgia drives much of the appeal, but the best specific angle is a side-by-side comparison with the original Base Set Charizard. Arita's artwork remains unchanged, while the set symbol and Base Set 2 foil treatment clearly separate the two printings.
