What's a gem-mint (PSA 10) Ultra Ball worth?

A PSA 10 Ultra Ball is valued around $20.00 — roughly 20x a raw Near Mint copy (about $1.02). That premium reflects how few examples earn a perfect grade.

Ultra Ball: Rarity & Collectibility

Ultra Ball in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #68/73 of the Shining Legends 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 Ultra Ball?

In 2026, a Near Mint Ultra Ball (Uncommon, Shining Legends #68/73) changes hands at roughly $1.02, and availability keeps it within easy reach for collectors. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $1.02, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.24. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $1.02, Lightly Played $0.92, Moderately Played $1.23, Heavily Played $0.49, Damaged $0.24 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Ultra Ball is valued near $20.00 — about 20x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.

Graded Ultra Ball: 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) Ultra Ball sits around $20.00 — roughly 20x 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. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
