How Much Are Golden Pokemon Trading Cards Worth?

Golden Pokémon Cards, as with nearly all collectibles, vary greatly in market value based on a range of factors from type of card to condition to whether they remain in their original factory-sealed packaging. Here are a few key elements to guide you to an answer.

What Are Golden Pokémon Trading Cards?
- Golden Pokémon trading cards are gold-colored trading cards featuring the Nintendo Pokémon characters MewTwo, Togepi, Charizard, Pikachu, Jigglypuff and Poliwhirl.
Key Factors Impacting Value
- The rarity or popularity of a given image or theme on the card, whether it is in its original packaging and whether it is factory-sealed are the three most important factors in determining value.
Special Sets
- Special sets of six, noted for their red or blue box packaging, were produced and were at one time available for purchase at Burger King.
Sources to Purchase or Sell
- The best place to find a selection of Golden Pokémon cards are online retailers such as Amazon and online auction sites such as eBay.
Market Value
- Nonmint, unpackaged cards can sell for $1 to $5 each. Originally packaged, factory-sealed individual cards with certificates of authenticity sell for between $5 and $15, and special-edition multiple-card or ancillary object sets can run anywhere from $15 to $100 each.
