Is Energy Search worth grading?

$49

Expected return across every likely grade, after fees — the realistic average, not the best case. Only 24.2% of copies gem (PSA 10 best case $8); most land at PSA 9 or below.

VerdictNot worth it

The odds

Energy Search is a Commoncard — a guaranteed slot in every pack, not a rarity gamble, so there's no pull-odds figure for it.

PSA 10 (gem mint)23.6%96 of 407
PSA 937.8%154 of 407
PSA graded so far407
Gem Mint 1096
Total graded407

Estimates only. Pack odds come from CardTrack's pack model (the same one behind the pack simulator) — not an official rate. Grading odds are the real cumulative PSA population, which skews toward nicer, resubmitted copies, so it overstates the true first-submission gem rate. Full grade-by-grade breakdown below.

⚖️ Risk-adjusted return

Best case isn't the whole story. Weighting every grade by how often it actually happens, across 393 PSA-graded copies:

Likely outcomeChanceValue
PSA 1024.2%$64.00
PSA 937.9%$15.00
PSA ≤837.9%$3.00

Net = graded value − raw value − grading cost (tier fee + ~$20 round-trip shipping), using PSA fees as of 2026-06-28; the paused PSA Value tier is excluded so this isn't overstated. Gem rate is estimated from cumulative PSA population, which skews toward nicer, resubmitted copies — so it overstates the true grade rate. Treat it as a guide, not a guarantee.

Population across gradersPSA, CGC, BGS & TAG — every grade, with gem rates

“Sold” = median of real recent sold listings at that grade (eBay or Fanatics Collect — hover a badge to see which). “Modelled” = no verified graded sale behind the figure; it is derived from the raw price and reference guides, so treat it as a ceiling to check, not a price to quote.

What NM / LP / MP actually mean — and how much they cost

For context: a graded PSA 7 slab of this card sells for about $14 (cert-verified) — a heavily-played raw copy shouldn't cost much more than that.
