Magcargo ex is the double rare chase card sitting at number 29 in the 2024 Twilight Masquerade set, brought to life by illustrator PLANETA Mochizuki with that molten, slow-burn artwork the card is known for. If you are digging into Magcargo ex value right now, the short version is that this is a card most people can pick up for very little raw, but one that gets genuinely interesting once you start talking grades.

The collector's take on Magcargo ex
Is Magcargo ex worth grading?
Here is the honest math on Magcargo ex price by grade: raw copies sit around $1, a Grade 9 jumps to $65, and a PSA 10 tops out at $104, which works out to 105.1 times the raw price. That is a big multiplier on paper, and it is easy to get excited about it. But grading costs money and time no matter what comes back, and there is no guarantee your copy comes home gem mint. With 246 of the 403 graded copies already sitting at PSA 10, it is clear this card can hit the top grade fairly often, which is good news if your copy is centered and clean, but it also means a near perfect raw copy is basically required before you even think about submitting it. If you already own one and it looks sharp under a loupe, grading can make sense. If you are buying raw copies purely to grade and flip, treat it as a hobby bet, not a guaranteed return.
How rare is Magcargo ex?
Right now there are 403 total graded copies of Magcargo ex on record, and 246 of those have come back PSA 10. That is a fairly high gem rate for a modern double rare, which tells you the card is printed and handled well enough that grading it isn't a coin flip the way it is for some fragile holo patterns. The flip side is that with population numbers this modest overall, the graded market for this card is still thin. It does not take much collector demand to move the needle on price, and it also means PSA 10 copies, while not scarce relative to the total population, are still a limited, countable group rather than an endless supply.
Where can you pull Magcargo ex?
This is where PackSpy's own data comes in, since we track real pulls across pack opening sites rather than just guessing at odds. We have recorded Magcargo ex pulled 167 times across tilt-rips, collector-crypt, and courtyard, with the biggest single pull landing at $300. It has shown up in a mix of pack types too, including the Rookie Pack, Pokemon Dollar Pack, Legendary Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokémon Basic Pack, and Wildcard Basic Pack, so it is not locked to one product. That said, opening packs for a specific card is always a gamble, and most rips do not come close to covering their cost. If you specifically want a Magcargo ex, buying one directly on the secondary market is usually the more reliable route, but if you enjoy the rip itself, these are the pack types and sites where it has actually turned up.
Questions people ask
How much is Magcargo ex worth?+
A raw, ungraded Magcargo ex is valued around $1, which reflects its double rare status in a set with plenty of copies in circulation. Once you factor in grading, the value climbs quickly, with a Grade 9 sitting at $65. So the real Magcargo ex worth question usually comes down to what grade you are holding.
Is Magcargo ex worth grading?+
It can be, since a PSA 10 sells for $104 compared to about $1 raw, a jump of 105.1 times. But grading only pays off if the card comes back perfect, and with 246 of 403 graded copies already at PSA 10, you need a genuinely clean copy to have a real shot before spending money on submission.
How much is a PSA 10 Magcargo ex worth?+
A PSA 10 Magcargo ex is currently valued at $104, well above the $65 mark for a Grade 9 and far beyond the roughly $1 raw price. Out of 403 total graded copies, 246 have reached that PSA 10 gem mint standard, so it is an achievable grade but still one worth chasing carefully.
