The 24-hour average has fallen 5% against the 30-day average — €2.86 to €2.73. A single day is a thin sample; treat it as direction, not as a price.
Note the weekly average of €2.00 sitting outside both the daily and the monthly figure. That happens when only a handful of copies change hands, and one sale drags the average with it. On a card this thinly traded, none of these three numbers is a price you can count on.
About this card’s market
Asking prices run from $0.25 to $40.00. A spread that wide says more about individual listings than about the card — the market price above is what copies actually sold for.
In Europe the card has been sliding: the 24-hour average is 5% below the 30-day one.
It sits joint 70th of 101 priced cards in Base Set.
It is a Common card, printed in 1999, illustrated by Ken Sugimori.
It has been out of tournament play for two decades — what is left is collector demand.
