Team Rocket PSA 10: prices, returns and comparison

27 cards from Team Rocket graded PSA 10: 295 real sale prices, annualised returns and a comparison with Bitcoin, the S&P 500 and gold.

What does a Pokémon card return as an investment — and does it beat Bitcoin, equities or gold? This page shows real sale prices for 27 cards, the annualised return derived from them, and performance side by side with the major asset classes. It is based on 295 recorded sales from public auction archives.

For investors, not collectors. Only the top grade PSA 10 is covered — the single condition in which trading cards trade as an asset class. Every dot in the chart is a price actually paid at auction, not an estimate and not an asking price.
