The 24-hour figure sits too far from the 30-day one to describe a month of trading, so we draw no conclusion from it. Cardmarket publishes averages but not how many copies they are averaged over, and we will not guess at the reason. The source figures are shown above without interpretation.
About this card’s market
Asking prices run from $14.54 to $380. A spread that wide says more about individual listings than about the card — the market price above is what copies actually sold for.
It sits 117th of 163 priced cards in Expedition Base Set.
It is a Uncommon card, printed in 2002, illustrated by Ken Sugimori.
It has been out of tournament play for two decades — what is left is collector demand.
