graded card

Professionally assessed collectible

A graded card is a collectible trading card—sports, Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering—that has been professionally evaluated and assigned a numerical condition score, typically 1-10.

The card is then sealed in a tamper-proof plastic case displaying the grade.

Higher grades command dramatically higher prices: His PSA 10 rookie card sold for thousands.
