Should You Grade a Mewtwo Base Set Holo?
Mewtwo Base Set holo is the second most iconic card from the original Wizards of the Coast set after Charizard. It has consistent collector demand and meaningful PSA premiums, especially at PSA 9 and PSA 10.
Unlike Charizard, Mewtwo raw prices are accessible enough that grading math can work well at multiple grade tiers.
PSA Grade Spread for Mewtwo Base Set (2026)
- Raw (near-mint looking):$80–$150
- PSA 7:$200–$350
- PSA 8:$400–$700
- PSA 9:$1,200–$2,500
- PSA 10:$6,000–$15,000+
Even a PSA 7 or PSA 8 generates strong returns over raw. This is the classic vintage grading profile: mid-grades clear costs comfortably, high grades produce exceptional returns.
Condition Notes for Mewtwo Base Set
Mewtwo holos are slightly less prone to the heavy scratch issues seen on some other Base Set holos, but centering and edge wear are still the primary grade killers. 1st Edition copies require near-perfect condition for PSA 9+ but authenticate at every tier.
