Mew EX (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Mew EX (Japanese) in its sought-after 1st_Edition_Holofoil variant is a genuine Rare that print runs hold back, so collectors have to hunt for clean copies. Cataloged as Rare #024/020 of the Shiny Collection 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 Mew EX (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Mew EX (Japanese) (Rare, Shiny Collection #024/020) changes hands at roughly $350.00, 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 $350.00, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $79.99. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $350.00, Lightly Played $299.99, Moderately Played $129.00, Heavily Played $99.99, Damaged $79.99 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Mew EX (Japanese) is valued near $4,728 — about 14x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Mew EX (Japanese): 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) Mew EX (Japanese) sits around $4,728 — roughly 14x 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 $932.50, PSA 8 $342.50 — 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.
