Donphan #48 comes from Secret Wonders, a set that hit shelves back in 2007, and it's the kind of card that quietly makes collectors smile: solid artwork from Ken Sugimori, an uncommon rarity, and that familiar armored elephant look. If you're digging into Donphan value right now, the short answer is that it sits at $1 raw, which puts it firmly in binder-filler territory rather than big-money chase card status, but that doesn't mean the story ends there.

The collector's take on Donphan
Is Donphan worth grading?
So is it worth grading? Let's be honest about the math. A raw Donphan sits at $1, and PSA 10 copies are valued at roughly 1.3x that raw price, which tells you gem mint status does add a little something, even on a card like this. The catch is that grading costs money and takes time, and with population numbers this small, hitting a true PSA 10 is genuinely not guaranteed. For a card at this price point, most collectors send it in for the love of a complete graded set or personal milestone rather than any real profit. If that's you, go for it. If you're grading purely to flip for cash, this probably isn't the card to bet on.
How rare is Donphan?
Only 70 copies of Donphan #48 have been graded in total, and of those, just 13 have earned a PSA 10. That's a fairly tight population for a card that's been around since 2007, which tells you most owners have simply kept theirs raw rather than sending it off. It also means gem mint copies, while not wildly rare in absolute terms, are still the minority outcome even among the graded pool, so a clean PSA 10 slab does carry a bit of bragging rights even if the dollar value stays modest.
Where can you pull Donphan?
Here's where PackSpy's own data comes in handy, since we track real pulls across pack sites rather than just guessing at odds. We've recorded Donphan #48 pulled 18 times across courtyard and collector-crypt, with the biggest recorded pull value hitting $51, which shows that even a common uncommon can occasionally land in a lucky spot. It's shown up in packs like the Pokémon Starter Pack, Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokémon Pro Pack, and The Amazing Chase Encore. Worth remembering, though: opening packs is a gamble, and most rips don't outearn what you spent, so treat any pull like this as a nice bonus rather than the plan.
Questions people ask
How much is Donphan worth?+
A raw, ungraded Donphan #48 from Secret Wonders is valued at $1. Graded copies can climb a little from there, with a Grade 9 sitting at $3, so condition does matter even on a modest card like this.
Is Donphan worth grading?+
It depends on your goal. PSA 10 copies run about 1.3x the raw price, which is a real bump but a small one in dollar terms, and with only 70 total graded copies out there, hitting gem mint isn't a sure thing. Grade it for the love of the hobby rather than expecting a big payday.
How much is a PSA 10 Donphan worth?+
A PSA 10 Donphan #48 is valued at $1, reflecting that gem mint premium of roughly 1.3x the raw price. Only 13 copies out of the 70 graded have reached that top grade, so it's a nice one to own even at this price point.
