Jacq (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Jacq (Japanese) in its sought-after Holofoil variant is a genuine Rare that print runs hold back, so collectors have to hunt for clean copies. Cataloged as Rare #097/078 of the SV1S: Scarlet ex 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 Jacq (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Jacq (Japanese) (Rare, SV1S: Scarlet ex #097/078) changes hands at roughly $3.80, 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 $3.80, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.99. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $3.80, Lightly Played $2.50, Damaged $0.99 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Jacq (Japanese) is valued near $20.00 — about 5.3x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Jacq (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) Jacq (Japanese) sits around $20.00 — roughly 5.3x 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 $18.90, CGC 10 $13.00 — 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.
