Magneton: Rarity & Collectibility
Magneton in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is a genuine Rare that print runs hold back, so collectors have to hunt for clean copies. Cataloged as Rare #16/108 of the Power Keepers set, it is the kind of card RarePokemonCard tracks for scarcity and collector demand rather than raw price alone. The harder a card is to pull in top condition, the more weight serious collectors place on it.
How Rare & Valuable Is Magneton?
In 2026, a Near Mint Magneton (Rare, Power Keepers #16/108) changes hands at roughly $9.81, and desirability among set-builders keeps that number firm. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $9.81, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $2.97. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $9.81, Lightly Played $6.24, Moderately Played $4.91, Heavily Played $2.44, Damaged $2.97 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Magneton is valued near $385.00 — about 39x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Magneton: Gem Mint & Population
Even for a card at this rarity, the top of the market belongs to certified gem-mint copies. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Magneton sits around $385.00 — roughly 39x a raw copy. That gap exists because relatively few examples ever earn a perfect grade, so gem-mint population is the real scarcity collectors chase. Step down a notch and demand spreads across PSA 9 $18.50, PSA 8 $22.49 — each tier a smaller, scarcer pool than the one below it. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
