Character and collecting appeal

Cyberse monsters come from the VRAINS era and are closely tied to Link Summoning. Its effect centres on Special Summoning. It has a Quick Effect, so it can also be used during the opponent's turn.

Version and identification

Check the code printed below the artwork on the right: it should read RA01-EN044. RA01-EN044 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 Collector's Rare version. Collector's Rares have a textured holographic finish over the artwork and frame. 25th Anniversary Rarity Collection has 6 other printings of Mekk-Knight Crusadia Avramax: RA01-EN044 Platinum Secret Rare (€0.66), RA01-EN044 Quarter Century Secret Rare (€3.25), RA01-EN044 Secret Rare (€0.22), RA01-EN044 Super Rare (€0.77), RA01-EN044 Ultimate Rare (€1.62) and RA01-EN044 Ultra Rare (€1.26).

Grading and population

A PSA 10 sells for 42.4× the ungraded price and 8.7× 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 November 2023 peak, which some collectors see as room to recover; it is the original printing, which reprints rarely replace for collectors; an active market (26 recent completed sales), so it is easy to sell. Against it: large modern print runs, which tend to cap prices unless a card becomes iconic. Past prices do not guarantee future ones. This is not financial advice.

Before you buy

Expect to pay around €1.64 for a clean ungraded copy; played copies sell for less, and a PSA 9 costs about €8.02. Ask the seller to show the code RA01-EN044 and the Collector's 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.
