Question 1

Is Persian worth grading?

Accepted Answer

So is Persian worth grading? Let's talk it through. A raw copy runs about $3, but a PSA 10 jumps all the way up to $157, which works out to roughly 49.6 times the raw price. That is a real gap, and it is exactly the kind of gap that gets collectors excited about sending cards in. But here is the honest part: gem mint is genuinely hard to land. Out of 164 total graded copies, only 38 have come back as a PSA 10, and a Grade 9 sits at $30, a much smaller bump than what perfect grade pays. Grading costs money and takes time, and there is no guarantee your copy comes back a 10 instead of a 9 or lower. If your raw copy already looks sharp under a loupe, corners clean, centering solid, no surface wear, it might be worth the gamble. If it has any soft spots, you may just be paying to confirm what you already suspected.

Question 2

How rare is Persian?

Accepted Answer

Scarcity is where Persian tells an interesting story. There are only 164 graded copies of this card in existence across all grades, and of those, just 38 have earned a PSA 10. That is a fairly tight population for a card that is not even considered rare within its own set, it is uncommon by rarity, which shows how much grading population comes down to how many people actually bother to submit a card, not just how many were printed. That relatively small pool of PSA 10s is part of why the gem mint price sits so far above the raw and Grade 9 figures. Fewer perfect copies means more competition for the ones that exist.

Question 3

Where can you pull Persian?

Accepted Answer

This is where PackSpy's own tracking comes in handy, because we do not just guess at this stuff, we record real pulls across pack sites. Persian has been pulled 47 times across collector-crypt, courtyard, and mnstr, showing up in a mix of products including Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokémon Basic Pack, Pack 1, Pokémon Starter Pack, and Pokémon Ultra (Spicy). The biggest recorded pull value for this card so far is $277, which shows that even an uncommon card can surprise you if it lands in the right pack in great condition. Worth remembering though, opening packs is a gamble and most rips do not pay for themselves, so treat any pull as a bonus rather than an expectation.

Question 4

How much is Persian worth?

Accepted Answer

A raw, ungraded Persian is valued at $3. Once graded, the value climbs significantly, with a Grade 9 sitting at $30 and a PSA 10 reaching $157, so condition and grading make a real difference here.

Question 5

Is Persian worth grading?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the copy in hand. A PSA 10 pays out at roughly 49.6 times the raw price, but only 38 of the 164 total graded copies have hit that gem mint grade, so it is not a sure thing. If your card looks clean and well centered, grading can be worth the risk, but there are no guarantees.
