Tap to open
Mysterious Fossil is card #62 from the Fossil set, the second expansion Pokemon ever released back in 1999, and it's a common illustrated by Keiji Kinebuchi that a lot of collectors remember fondly from their first fossil-themed booster boxes. It's not a card that turns heads for rarity in the traditional sense, but there's something charming about hunting down these old Fossil-era commons, and if you're looking up Mysterious Fossil value you're clearly one of the people who still cares. On the open market today it's a modest but honest piece of Pokemon history, sitting right around $1 raw.

The collector's take on Mysterious Fossil
Is Mysterious Fossil worth grading?
So is it worth sending off to get graded? Honestly, that depends on what you're hoping to get out of it. A raw copy sits at $1, and a PSA 10 comes in at $2, which works out to about 1.6x the raw price, so the ceiling here is pretty low to begin with. Interestingly, a Grade 9 has been fetching $15, higher than the PSA 10 figure, which is a good reminder that grading company and grade aren't always a straight line up in value, especially with older commons like this. Given that grading fees alone can eat past what this card sells for even in gem mint condition, most people are better off enjoying Mysterious Fossil as a nostalgic piece rather than treating it as a grading project, unless you're doing it as part of a bigger batch anyway.
How rare is Mysterious Fossil?
Across every grading submission on record, there are 644 graded copies of Mysterious Fossil out there, and only 63 of those have reached PSA 10. That's a fairly small slice landing in gem mint, which tells you these old fossil commons are tougher to keep pristine than you might expect after 25 plus years of handling, sleeves, and basement shoeboxes. It's not a card that commands a huge premium because of that scarcity, since the overall demand for a common stays modest, but it does explain why a true PSA 10 carries a bit more weight among people building complete graded Fossil sets.
Where can you pull Mysterious Fossil?
This is where PackSpy's real pull data earns its keep, since price guides can't tell you where a card is actually showing up in the wild. We've recorded Mysterious Fossil pulled 25 times across mnstr, collector-crypt, and courtyard, with the biggest recorded pull landing at $126, which is a nice reminder that even a common can occasionally surprise you depending on the pack and moment. It's shown up in Pack 1, the Elite Pokemon Gacha Pack, the Starter Pokemon Gacha Pack, the Wildcard Basic Pack, and the Pokemon Basic Pack, so if you're chasing it specifically, those are the pack types worth watching. Just remember that pack opening is fundamentally a gamble, and most rips don't come close to that $126 outlier, so treat any pull as a bonus rather than an expectation.
Questions people ask
How much is Mysterious Fossil worth?+
A raw, ungraded copy of Mysterious Fossil is valued at $1 right now. Graded copies can be worth more depending on condition, with a Grade 9 sitting at $15 and a PSA 10 at $2, so the price really depends on how well the card has held up over time.
Is Mysterious Fossil worth grading?+
Grading is generally only worth it if the card is in exceptional shape, since a PSA 10 sells for about 1.6x the raw price, or $2 compared to $1 raw. With only 63 out of 644 graded copies reaching PSA 10, gem mint is genuinely hard to hit, and grading fees can outweigh the payoff for a common like this.
How much is a PSA 10 Mysterious Fossil worth?+
A PSA 10 Mysterious Fossil is currently valued at $2, which is about 1.6x what the raw card sells for. There are 63 PSA 10 copies on record out of 644 total graded, so gem mint versions are the minority but not the majority driver of this card's overall value.
