Colress's Experiment (Full Art): Rarity & Collectibility
Colress's Experiment (Full Art) in its sought-after Holofoil variant is an Ultra Rare chase card, one of the headline pulls that most boosters never produce. Cataloged as Ultra Rare #190/196 of the SWSH11: Lost Origin 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 Colress's Experiment (Full Art)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Colress's Experiment (Full Art) (Ultra Rare, SWSH11: Lost Origin #190/196) changes hands at roughly $1.75, and its scarcity does most of the heavy lifting on that figure. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $1.75, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $1.04. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $1.75, Lightly Played $1.38, Moderately Played $1.20, Heavily Played $1.48, Damaged $1.04 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Colress's Experiment (Full Art) is valued near $34.99 — about 20x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Colress's Experiment (Full Art): Gem Mint & Population
For a chase card like Colress's Experiment (Full Art), the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Colress's Experiment (Full Art) sits around $34.99 — 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. Step down a notch and demand spreads across PSA 9 $18.98, CGC 10 $13.51, PSA 8 $5.75 — 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.
