Estimated Market Value
$0.50 - $1.50 (Raw/Damaged)
Recent Sales
Recent sales for near-mint copies range from $5 to $10; however, damaged copies typically sell for under $2 on platforms like eBay or TCGPlayer.
Condition Details
Extremely heavy wear including major corner rounding, significant edge fraying, visible creases/bends, and surface staining/dirt marks on the bottom-left corner and lower borders.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The severe physical damage and surface contamination would result in a very low grade, and the cost of grading significantly exceeds the market value of the card.
Card Description
Magneton LV. 30 with 80 HP. A Lightning-type Stage 1 Pokémon evolved from Magnemite. Features attacks 'Thunder Wave' (30) and 'Self-Destruct' (80). The design is a modern throwback to the original 1999 Base Set artwork by Keiji Kinebuchi, featuring three linked Magnemite against a starry holofoil background.
Notable Features
Holofoil star pattern in the art window; XY Evolutions set symbol (stylized X/Y) in the bottom right corner; retro-style layout designed to mimic the original 1999 card.
Authentication Notes
Appears to be a genuine 2016 XY Evolutions holofoil card. The font, set symbol, and copyright dates match official prints, although the card is in very poor physical condition.
