Nidoking #11: rarity, grading and trend
Nidoking #11 is a Rare Holo Pokémon card from Base Set, the Base era (1999). It ranks as number 7 by price out of 307 cards in the set, so it is one of the cards collectors chase when opening packs. A PSA 10 sells for about 53x 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 ($31.26 to $31.26). The illustration is by Ken Sugimori.
