What Is Mew (Japanese) Worth?
Mew (Japanese) (1st_Edition_Holofoil variant) is a Common card from the CP5: Mythical & Legendary Dream Shine Collection set, card number 016/036. On PokeCardWorth we focus on one question — what is it actually worth — and at its current valuation, it carries real mid-range value and is worth keeping protected in a sleeve and top-loader.
Mew (Japanese) Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Mew (Japanese) (CP5: Mythical & Legendary Dream Shine Collection, 016/036) is worth around $33.43 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $33.43, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $29.00. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $33.43, Lightly Played $30.34, Moderately Played $25.68, Heavily Played $11.99, Damaged $29.00 — so grading the condition correctly before you buy or sell matters more than almost anything else.

Is It Worth Grading Mew (Japanese)?
Grading Mew (Japanese) can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($33.43) and a PSA 10 ($410.00) is about $376.57 — a 12x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $92.00, CGC 10 $139.95, CGC 9.5 $69.95. Grading is worth considering if your copy looks clean — the PSA 10 premium can comfortably clear the fee.
