Regidrago V - SWSH281: Rarity & Collectibility
Regidrago V - SWSH281 in its sought-after Holofoil variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #SWSH281 of the SWSH: Sword & Shield Promo Cards 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 Regidrago V - SWSH281?
In 2026, a Near Mint Regidrago V - SWSH281 (Common, SWSH: Sword & Shield Promo Cards #SWSH281) changes hands at roughly $0.82, 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 $0.82, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.44. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.82, Lightly Played $0.62, Moderately Played $0.84, Heavily Played $1.47, Damaged $0.44 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Regidrago V - SWSH281 is valued near $55.00 — about 67x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Regidrago V - SWSH281: 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) Regidrago V - SWSH281 sits around $55.00 — roughly 67x 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 $10.13, CGC 10 $12.50, CGC 9.5 $12.00 — 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.
