Version and identification

Check the code printed below the artwork on the right: it should read RA01-EN064. RA01-EN064 is the English printing. Other languages use their own letters in place of EN, such as DE or FR, and are priced separately. It is the Platinum Secret Rare version. Platinum Secret Rares are a newer Secret Rare variant with a platinum-coloured finish. 25th Anniversary Rarity Collection has 6 other printings of Forbidden Droplet: RA01-EN064 Collector's Rare (€10.66), RA01-EN064 Quarter Century Secret Rare (€43.05), RA01-EN064 Secret Rare (€6.33), RA01-EN064 Super Rare (€4.42), RA01-EN064 Ultimate Rare (€14.15) and RA01-EN064 Ultra Rare (€4.32). Each has its own price, so match the code, edition and rarity exactly.

Grading and population

A PSA 10 sells for 8.9× the ungraded price and 1.7× a PSA 9. That gap is big enough that grading a sharp, well-centred copy can pay for itself. Even pack-fresh modern cards can have surface scratches or curling foil, so a 10 is never guaranteed.

Investment potential

In its favour: a price well below its May 2026 peak, which some collectors see as room to recover; an active market (25 recent completed sales), so it is easy to sell. Against it: falling prices, down 43% in a year; large modern print runs, which tend to cap prices unless a card becomes iconic. Card prices can fall as well as rise, so this is not financial advice.

Before you buy

Expect to pay around €8.49 for a clean ungraded copy; played copies sell for less, and a PSA 9 costs about €44.32. Ask the seller to show the code RA01-EN064 and the Platinum Secret Rare finish clearly in the photos, as listing titles often mix up printings. Modern foils can be scratched or curled straight from the pack, so check the surface under a light if you plan to grade.
