Character and collecting appeal

The Winged Dragon of Ra is the most powerful of the three Egyptian God cards from Battle City and Marik Ishtar's ace. Its text is about negating cards and effects, Special Summoning and destroying cards. Guardian Slime and The Winged Dragon of Ra - Sphere Mode mention The Winged Dragon of Ra in their text, which keeps it relevant.

Version and identification

Check the code printed below the artwork on the right: it should read RA03-EN137. RA03-EN137 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. Quarter Century Bonanza has one other printing of The Winged Dragon of Ra: RA03-EN137 Quarter Century Secret Rare (€53.75). Each has its own price, so match the code, edition and rarity exactly.

Price history

Today an ungraded copy of this printing sells for about €15.39, a PSA 9 for €24.52 and a PSA 10 for €59.44. Our monthly prices for it go back to November 2024. Over the last 12 months ungraded copies are up 73%, and up 7% in the last month. The current price is its high point on our records. PSA 10 copies have moved down 11% over the same 12 months.

Grading and population

A PSA 10 sells for 3.9× the ungraded price and 2.4× a PSA 9. That gap is small, so grading fees may outweigh the gain unless the card is for your own collection. Modern foils can leave the pack with scratches, print lines or a slight curl, so even fresh copies do not always reach a 10.

Investment potential

In its favour: steady demand, with ungraded prices up 73% in a year; lasting fame from the anime or the competitive game; an active market (40 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 €15.39 for a clean ungraded copy; played copies sell for less, and a PSA 9 costs about €24.52. Ask the seller to show the code RA03-EN137 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.
