What Is Artazon Worth?
Artazon (Holofoil variant) is a secret rare — one of the hardest pulls in SV03: Obsidian Flames, card number 229/197. 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.
Artazon Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Artazon (SV03: Obsidian Flames, 229/197) is worth around $1.70 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $1.70, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $1.90. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $1.70, Lightly Played $1.75, Moderately Played $1.74, Heavily Played $1.45, Damaged $1.90 — 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 $37.00 — about 22x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $16.50.
Is It Worth Grading Artazon?
Grading Artazon can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($1.70) and a PSA 10 ($37.00) is about $35.30 — a 22x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $16.50, CGC 10 $18.00, CGC 9.5 $30.00. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
