Unown V (Alternate Full Art): Rarity & Collectibility
Unown V (Alternate 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 #177/195 of the SWSH12: Silver 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 Unown V (Alternate Full Art)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Unown V (Alternate Full Art) (Ultra Rare, SWSH12: Silver #177/195) changes hands at roughly $21.00, 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 $21.00, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $9.84. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $21.00, Lightly Played $19.07, Moderately Played $17.54, Heavily Played $15.00, Damaged $9.84 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Unown V (Alternate Full Art) is valued near $79.00 — about 3.8x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Unown V (Alternate Full Art): Gem Mint & Population
For a chase card like Unown V (Alternate Full Art), the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Unown V (Alternate Full Art) sits around $79.00 — roughly 3.8x 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 $18.50, CGC 10 $34.00, CGC 9.5 $24.50 — 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.
