Magby #17: rarity, grading and trend

Magby #17 is a Rare Holo Pokémon card from Expedition Base Set, the E-Card era (2002). It ranks as number 43 by price out of 165 cards in the set. A PSA 10 sells for about 60x the raw price, so centering and surface condition decide most of what a copy is worth. Over the last 30 days the price rose +91%, from $42.74 to $81.45. The illustration is by Mitsuhiro Arita.

Is it worth grading? Here, the enormous gem-mint multiple makes professional grading tempting, but it also signals how scarce flawless outcomes may be. The holo field needs strong lighting to reveal hairlines, and pale edge wear can be easy to miss against the card's border design.
