What the sales actually show

The counts are in the hero; this is how the card trades — the range, the pace, where, and what each grade has actually fetched. Figures that name a grade cover that grade alone; the rest count every grade.

Every sale we can show you

Completed sales from our own sold ledger, PSA’s certified-sale feed and the eBay comps, in one list, newest first — Fanatics, Goldin and eBay between them. Filter by grade: a raw copy and a graded slab are different objects, and averaging them is how a raw market comes to look wild. We hold 20 sales for this card going back to 2026; the ledger names its most recent eight per grade, which is what the table below can link to.

A badge says what is behind the number. cert-verified means PSA sales each tied to a specific slab you can check by serial; sold means completed eBay or Fanatics listings; modelled means no verified graded sale exists and the figure is derived from the raw price and reference guides — a ceiling to check, not a price to quote. reviewed was set by hand after reading the sales record.

How many exist, and at what grade

PSA's cumulative census for this card — the same population behind the ladder above and the grading verdict below.

every grade, all time

  • PSA 40 graded
  • CGC 153 graded
  • TAG 1 graded

The census is cumulative and counts resubmissions, so it skews toward nicer copies and overstates the gem rate a first submission should expect. Treat it as the ceiling.

The odds of pulling one

Omanyte is a common card — a guaranteed slot in every pack rather than a rarity gamble, so there is no pull-odds figure for it.

Compare graders, and the live market

The verdict above is PSA's — the grader the population, the ROI table and the ladder on this page all use. Trader prices all three graders against each other and adds what the asking market is doing right now.

  • PSA, CGC and Beckett side by side — each on its own population and fees, Beckett scored on the 9.5 its market pays for.
  • Lightly and moderately played — the same expected return for a copy that cannot gem.
  • Ask vs sold — what the live listings want, against what copies have really closed at.
  • Momentum — the 30-day median against the 90-day, per grade.
  • Where it sells higher — the Fanatics-versus-eBay premium, with the sale counts behind it.
  • Population history — the weekly PSA census, so you can see how fast 10s are arriving before you post the card.
