About シャイニースターV (Sword & Shield series, S4a)

シャイニースターV (Sword & Shield series, S4a) numbers 190 cards on its printed run, and CardTrack's Japanese catalogue holds 330 in total: the extra 140 are secret rares whose collector numbers sit above 190. The set covers 136 different Pokémon. By rarity the cards split into 6 tiers: Rare (104), SSR (23), Double Rare (16), Super Rare (9), Triple Rare (8) and Ultra Rare (4).

The tracked cards add up to about $1,024, and the 106 most valuable of them carry 80% of that. The most valuable card is the Charizard (リザードンVMAX) #308/190 at $141.68 raw, around $201 in PSA 10, while the median card is worth about $1.21. 184 cards carry a PSA 10 price; across the cards with both figures, a PSA 10 copy sells for about 18.8× the raw price at the median.

64 illustrators are credited across the set, led by 5ban Graphics (38), Kouki Saitou (19) and Akira Komayama (18). Raw prices are CardTrack's near-mint figure for the Japanese printing; graded ladders come from CardTrack's graded-price feed, and 210 of the 330 cards have completed eBay sales behind them. Cards with a graded ladder but no raw price are shown at their PSA 10 value so they still sort. CardTrack also tracks 2 sealed products for this set, led by the Shiny Star V Booster Box at about $148.13.
