What Is Primarina Worth?
Primarina (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is a Rare card in the SM Base Set set, card number 41/149. 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.
Primarina Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Primarina (SM Base Set, 41/149) is worth around $0.61 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.61, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.50. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.61, Lightly Played $0.41, Moderately Played $0.52, Heavily Played $0.40, Damaged $0.50 — so grading the condition correctly before you buy or sell matters more than almost anything else. A PSA 10 (Gem Mint) example is valued near $65.00 — about 107x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $7.50.
Is It Worth Grading Primarina?
Grading Primarina can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($0.61) and a PSA 10 ($65.00) is about $64.39 — a 107x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $7.50, CGC 10 $49.99. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
