What Is Imposter Professor Oak Worth?
Imposter Professor Oak (Holofoil variant) is a Common card from the Celebrations: Classic Collection set, card number 73/102. On PokeCardWorth we focus on one question — what is it actually worth — and at its current valuation, it is an affordable, easy-to-find card best valued as part of a complete set rather than on its own.
Imposter Professor Oak Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Imposter Professor Oak (Celebrations: Classic Collection, 73/102) is worth around $0.35 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.35, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.25. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.35, Lightly Played $0.35, Moderately Played $0.51, Heavily Played $0.18, Damaged $0.25 — so grading the condition correctly before you buy or sell matters more than almost anything else.
