Is Donphan worth grading?

$54

Expected return across every likely grade, after fees — the realistic average, not the best case. Only 43.8% of copies gem (PSA 10 best case $35); most land at PSA 9 or below.

The odds

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

PSA 10 (gem mint)43.8%7 of 16
PSA 937.5%6 of 16
PSA graded so far16
Gem Mint 107
Total graded16

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 16 PSA-graded copies:

Likely outcomeChanceValue
PSA 1043.8%$57.00
PSA 937.5%$25.00
PSA ≤818.8%$22.00

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

Only 44% of 16 PSA-graded Donphan copies are a gem-mint 10 (7 of 16) — the rest grade lower.

“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.
