Chesnaught V: Rarity & Collectibility
Chesnaught V 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 #015/195 of the SWSH12: Silver Tempest 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 Chesnaught V?
In 2026, a Near Mint Chesnaught V (Ultra Rare, SWSH12: Silver Tempest #015/195) changes hands at roughly $0.70, 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 $0.70, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.48. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.70, Lightly Played $0.74, Moderately Played $0.94, Heavily Played $0.56, Damaged $0.48 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Chesnaught V is valued near $45.00 — about 64x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Chesnaught V: Gem Mint & Population
For a chase card like Chesnaught V, the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Chesnaught V sits around $45.00 — roughly 64x 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 $10.00, CGC 10 $24.95, CGC 9.5 $5.00 — 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.
