Character and collecting appeal

Fairies are known for their light, angelic artwork and for cards that protect Life Points. Its text is about an alternative way to win the duel and searching the Deck.

Version and identification

Check the code printed below the artwork on the right: it should read RA01-EN036. RA01-EN036 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 7 other printings of Ghostrick Angel of Mischief: RA01-EN036 Collector's Rare (€2.18), RA01-EN036 Misprint (€13.39), RA01-EN036 Quarter Century Secret Rare (€6.21), RA01-EN036 Secret Rare (€0.18), RA01-EN036 Super Rare (€1.01) and RA01-EN036 Ultimate Rare (€2.03), and more.

Grading and population

A PSA 10 sells for 40.4× the ungraded price and 4.3× a PSA 9. That gap is small, so grading fees may outweigh the gain unless the card is for your own collection. 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 December 2023 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 56% 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 €0.76 for a clean ungraded copy; played copies sell for less, and a PSA 9 costs about €7.13. Ask the seller to show the code RA01-EN036 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.
