Garnecia Elefantis #MRD-E125 collector guide

About Garnecia Elefantis

Garnecia Elefantis is a Normal Monster, with flavour text instead of an effect, printed as MRD-E125 in Metal Raiders (2002) as a Super Rare. It is a Level 7 EARTH Beast-Warrior monster with 2,400 ATK and 2,000 DEF. At its Level it needs two Tributes to Normal Summon. Its ATK is the 10th highest of the 122 monsters in the set. Metal Raiders was the second English booster set. It added Summoned Skull, Gate Guardian, Mirror Force and Change of Heart, and many of its cards shaped how the early game was played. Ungraded, this printing ranks 183rd of the 508 Metal Raiders cards we track. The top card is Gate Guardian at €301.65.

Character and collecting appeal

Beast-Warriors mix animal and warrior designs and have been part of the game since the first sets. As a Normal Monster it is collected for its artwork and its spot in the set rather than for play.

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 MRD-E125. The E in MRD-E125 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 Super Rare version. Super Rares have holographic artwork and a plain name. Metal Raiders has 3 other printings of Garnecia Elefantis: MRD-125 (€1.78), MRD-125 1st Edition (€16.46) and MRD-E125 1st Edition (€7.19). Each has its own price, so match the code, edition and rarity exactly.

Grading and population

A PSA 10 sells for 58.2× the ungraded price and 12.3× a PSA 9. That gap is big enough that grading a sharp, well-centred copy can pay for itself. Early English Yu-Gi-Oh! cards often have off-centre cuts and wear on the dark brown back borders, which is why high grades are hard to reach.

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

Expect to pay around €2.67 for a clean ungraded copy; played copies sell for less, and a PSA 9 costs about €12.58. Ask the seller to show the code MRD-E125, the missing "1st Edition" text and the Super Rare 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.
