Slab history — PSA 9 copies that have sold more than once

160 slabs have sold more than once, across 168 resales — typically 199 days apart, with a median gross price change of +48.9%. That is 160 of the 2,880 distinct slabs behind 3,161 cert-linked sales at this grade — 5.6%. The rest we have seen sell once, which is not evidence they have not sold before.

How many PSA 9 copies exist

PSA’s cumulative census for this card. It counts resubmissions, so it skews toward nicer copies and overstates the rate a fresh submission should expect.

Share is each grader’s 9s out of everything it has graded. A 9.5 sits between a 9 and a 10; PSA does not give one. Another grader’s slab is its own market and is not in the price above. Totals include slabs graded authentic only.

Is the PSA 9 supply growing?

New PSA 9 slabs from PSA’s weekly counts, each change measured between the two report days shown; the weekly counts end on 19 Oct 2026, so the population above, PSA’s newest reading, can run ahead of them. Resubmissions count as new slabs, so this is the supply that reaches the market, not new copies of the card.

Our record holds the sales we can see (eBay, PSA’s cert-verified sales and the auction houses we read), not every sale, and most slabs graded are never sold.

Stepping up to a PSA 10

One grade apart, one Alakazam ex. Today’s prices are each page’s headline; the line over time is our recorded price index for both grades.

A PSA 10 sells for $299 against $70 for a PSA 9: $229 more, or 4.3× the price of a 9.

On the index a PSA 10 was 4.3× a 9 on 24 Oct 2026, 4.2× on 24 Jul 2026, and 6.1× on 24 Oct 2025. A wider gap means the 10 has pulled further ahead of the 9.
