Persian: Rarity & Collectibility
Persian in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #89/114 of the XY - Steam Siege 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 Persian?
In 2026, a Near Mint Persian (Uncommon, XY - Steam Siege #89/114) changes hands at roughly $0.49, 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 $0.49, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.25. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.49, Lightly Played $0.45, Moderately Played $0.38, Heavily Played $0.17, Damaged $0.25 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value.

Collector Outlook for Persian
Persian is an Uncommon collectors gather while building toward the set's headline pulls. Collect it for completeness and the joy of the hunt; its appeal is the set, not the ceiling. Whether you are chasing it for a set or as a centerpiece, revisit Persian on RarePokemonCard — rarity demand in 2026 shifts with reprints, set nostalgia, and how few high-grade copies surface.
