This week's auction is particularly special as it features loads of perfect 10 cards. If you're a fan of that hard-to-reach high grade, this auction is for you!
Weiss Schwarz 1st Yamato-class Battleship BGS Pristine 10
We have a Becket Pristine 10 1st Yamato-class Battleship card out of the gate. This Special Rare card from the Kantai Collection Weiss Schwarz deck should be on your watch list. Yamato is based on the famed Japanese battleship and is a rather endearing character in the KanColle franchise. This card is signed by the Japanese voice actress Ayana Taketatsu.
Ungraded examples of this card have a median list price of $500. We have seen Weiss Schwarz cards command serious money in past auctions, and this could be one such card. If you're a fan of battleships, or collecting seiyuu autographs, don't overlook this card.
Marvel Universe Series 1 Stan Lee CGC 10
Stan Lee co-created some of the most iconic Marvel superheroes, including Spider-Man, Thor, and the X-Men. Lee would gain new fans outside of the comic world thanks to his multiple cameos in many Marvel films. He is one of the most famed figures in comic books, and tho he has since passed his legacy will live on for generations. Stan Lee was immortalized in many ways, including this Marvel Universe series 1 card, depicting Lee and many of his co-creations.
This CGC blue label 10 is eye-catching and will likely be an affordable buy. In April of 2023 two PSA 9 Mint examples sold for $22 on eBay. On the other hand, a PSA 10 sold for $152 that same month. As this is a CGC 10 this has the potential to sell for over $100. If you're a collector this is a cool card to buy, but if you're of the investment mindset I would look elsewhere.
Pokemon Espeon Neo Discovery PSA 10
Pokemon Eevee has a number of unique evolutions depending on what power shard the trainer holds. Eevee can evolve into eight different evolutions, including Flareon, Umbreon, and Vaporeon. This Eevee evolved into Espeon thanks to the Sun Shard. This loyal Pokemon is as powerful as it is beautiful, and with this grade of PSA 10 Gem Mint, this is as good as it gets!
Ungraded, Espeon has a market price of $420. Finding other graded Gem Mint 10 examples is also hard to come by. In December of 2021, Heritage sold a CGC blue label 9 for $504. In February of 2022 a CGC blue label 9 sold for $492. $500 might be the safe spot for this card, but it has the potential to go for more based on the grade alone. This is a great collector and investor card, but if you gotta catch 'em all, this is one to throw your superball at.
