Ferrothorn #72 value & price

Tap to open
Ferrothorn is the spiky, iron-plated Grass type that always looks a little tougher than it has any right to be, and card #72 from the Korean Raging Surf set gives it a nice illustrated treatment courtesy of Shin Nagasawa. This is a 2011 Rare, not a chase card in the traditional sense, but it has stuck around in collections and pack pulls long enough that people still search Ferrothorn value regularly. Right now the raw copy sits at $3, which tells you it's an accessible piece of that set rather than a grail.

The collector's take on Ferrothorn
Is Ferrothorn worth grading?
So is Ferrothorn worth grading? Let's be honest about the math first. A raw copy is $3, a Grade 9 comes in at $15, and a PSA 10 sits at $42, which works out to roughly 13.9 times what the ungraded card sells for. That jump looks tempting on paper, but gem mint is genuinely hard to hit, especially on a card from an older Korean set where centering and edge wear tend to sneak in during printing and shipping. Once you factor in grading fees, shipping both ways, and the real chance your copy comes back a 9 instead of a 10, this is more of a 'grade it if you already love the card' situation than a guaranteed profit play. If you're doing it purely for resale, run the numbers on your specific copy before you send it in.
How rare is Ferrothorn?
We don't have official population figures to lean on here, so it's best to think about Ferrothorn in terms of its rarity tier rather than an exact scarcity count. As a Rare from a 2011 Korean set, it wasn't printed with the same volume or long-term hype as a modern holo chase card, which is part of why the raw price stays modest even years later. That said, the price gap between a Grade 9 at $15 and a PSA 10 at $42 shows that clean, gem mint copies still carry a real premium, even without a big population number to point to. Scarcity here is more about condition surviving thirteen-plus years than about print run rarity.
Where can you pull Ferrothorn?
This is where PackSpy actually earns its keep, because we track real pulls across pack sites rather than guessing. We've recorded Ferrothorn pulled 15 times, all logged at courtyard, with the biggest recorded pull value hitting $58, well above its usual raw price. It's shown up in Pokémon Starter Pack, Pokémon Pro Pack, and Pokémon Basic Pack, so if you're chasing this specific card, those are the pack types worth watching. Just remember that opening packs is a gamble no matter how you slice it, most rips don't beat what you paid, so treat any pull as a bonus rather than an expectation.
Questions people ask
How much is Ferrothorn worth?+
A raw, ungraded Ferrothorn #72 from Raging Surf is valued at $3 right now. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 at $15 and a PSA 10 reaching $42, so condition makes a real difference on this one.
Is Ferrothorn worth grading?+
It depends on your goals. The PSA 10 price is about 13.9 times the raw value, which sounds great, but gem mint copies are genuinely tough to land and grading isn't free, so weigh the fees and the odds before you commit. If you already own the card and love it, grading is a fun way to protect it either way.
How much is a PSA 10 Ferrothorn worth?+
A PSA 10 Ferrothorn currently sits at $42, well above the $3 raw price and the $15 Grade 9 price. It's the clearest sign that gem mint condition carries real weight on this card, even though it's a Rare rather than a headline chase card.
