Its appeal comes from a recognizable Generation I Pokémon paired with a distinctive early reverse-foil format.

Why Butterfree #21 is priced where it is

Butterfree #21 is a Rare Pokémon card from Legendary Collection, a 2002 release. It ranks as number 36 by price out of 110 cards in the set. Its price has held almost flat over the last 30 days ($195.22 to $195.22). The illustration is by Kagemaru Himeno.

Is it worth grading? Because no dependable gem-mint multiplier is available, submission decisions should rest on condition and ownership goals rather than an assumed payout. On reverse-holo copies, surface scuffs are the first concern; on regular copies, whitening along the back edges is usually more obvious.
