Firegrass #LOB-E014

Firegrass #LOB-E014 collector guide

About Firegrass

Firegrass is a Normal Monster, with flavour text instead of an effect, printed as LOB-E014 in Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon (2002) as a Common. It is a Level 2 EARTH Plant monster with 700 ATK and 600 DEF. Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon was the first booster set of the English Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game. It brought Blue-Eyes White Dragon, Dark Magician, Red-Eyes Black Dragon and the five pieces of Exodia to English-speaking players, so almost every card in it is a piece of the game's history.

Character and collecting appeal

Plant monsters are a small Type that has grown in popularity with modern support. As a Normal Monster it is collected for its artwork and its spot in the set rather than for play. Darkfire Dragon mentions Firegrass in its text, which keeps it relevant.

Version and identification

This guide covers the Unlimited printing, without the "1st Edition" text below the artwork. 1st Edition copies of the same card have their own, usually higher, prices. Check the code printed below the artwork on the right: it should read LOB-E014. The E in LOB-E014 marks the European English printing. The North American printing uses a code without the letter, sometimes with a different card number, and has its own prices. It is the Common version. Commons have a plain name and no foil. Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon has 3 other printings of Firegrass: LOB-018 (€0.45), LOB-018 1st Edition (€2.53) and LOB-E014 1st Edition (€2.20). Each has its own price, so match the code, edition and rarity exactly.

Price history

There are no recent sales of this printing of Firegrass yet, so we cannot give it a value.

Investment potential

In its favour: it comes from the first years of the English game, which are no longer printed. Treat this as background, not a prediction or financial advice.

Before you buy

Ask the seller to show the code LOB-E014, the missing "1st Edition" text and the Common finish clearly in the photos, as listing titles often mix up printings. Cards from 2002 often show white wear on the back edges and corners, so ask for photos of the back before you buy.
