Condition & Value Assessment
Condition Grade
Very Good (VG 3)
Estimated Market Value
$3 - $8 (Raw/Played condition), $40+ (Graded PSA 9/10)
Recent Sales
Ungraded sales on eBay range from $2 to $10 based on condition. Graded copies vary significantly by grade, with Gem Mint 10s commanding a high premium from Pikachu character collectors.
Condition Details
Significant whitening and wear on the bottom and right yellow borders. The top edge shows minor chipping. The surface appears to have light scratches and the card is stored in a non-protective binder sleeve which can lead to further surface wear.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for grading. The visible edge wear and whitening would likely result in a low grade (PSA 3-5), making the grading fees higher than the card's secondary market value.
Card Description
Metal-type Pikachu (Delta Species) with 50 HP. Features attacks 'Tail Whap' and 'Steel Headbutt'. Illustration by Atsuko Nishida showing Pikachu jumping in a field against a blue sky. The card features the signature delta species silver border and textured background.
Notable Features

Authentication Notes
The font, copyright dates (2006), and delta species holofoil/texture patterns appear consistent with authentic Nintendo Holon Phantoms production. No immediate signs of counterfeiting detected.
