What Is Opal Worth?
Opal (Holofoil variant) is an ultra-rare chase card from SWSH11: Lost Origin Trainer Gallery, card number TG28/TG30. 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.
Opal Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Opal (SWSH11: Lost Origin Trainer Gallery, TG28/TG30) is worth around $1.71 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $1.71, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.99. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $1.71, Lightly Played $1.44, Moderately Played $1.66, Heavily Played $1.49, Damaged $0.99 — 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 $21.50 — about 13x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $7.00.
Is It Worth Grading Opal?
Grading Opal can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($1.71) and a PSA 10 ($21.50) is about $19.79 — a 13x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $7.00, CGC 10 $14.01, CGC 9.5 $14.99. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
