PSA grading guide

What do grades mean?

An independent grader scores each card's condition from 1 to 10, then seals it in a tamper-evident slab with a unique certification number. Every copy at the same grade meets the same standard.

PSA population

Population is the number of copies of a card PSA has graded at each grade, published by PSA. It changes as more cards are graded, and counts graded copies, not copies printed.

PSA grades whole numbers from 1 to 10, plus half grades from 1.5 to 8.5. There is no PSA 9.5.
Description  

The Pokémon TCG Japanese Pikachu 001/028 from the S8a 25th Anniversary Collection (2021) is a PSA-graded copy of the set's Mitsuhiro Arita Pikachu. It is offered in PSA 10 Gem Mint, the top grade on the PSA scale.

Overview

The 25th Anniversary Collection (S8a) was released in Japan on 22 October 2021 to celebrate 25 years of Pokémon and the Pokémon Trading Card Game, which launched in Japan on 20 October 1996. Its English counterpart is Celebrations, where this card appears as Pikachu 005/025.

Pikachu 001/028 is a holo rare illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, whose design closely follows the original Base Set Pikachu. It is a Lightning-type Basic Pokémon with 60 HP, up from 40 on the Base Set card, and its attacks are Gnaw for 10 damage and Thunder Jolt for 30, which can deal 10 damage to Pikachu on a coin flip. This copy is the Japanese printing.

The card has been graded by PSA (Professional Sports Authenticator), which assesses centering, corners, edges and surface on a 1 to 10 scale. PSA then seals the card in a tamper-evident holder whose label shows the card, the grade and a unique certification number that can be checked on psacard.com.

Every slab is authenticated by hand at PUSHAS, so you can shop with confidence.

FAQs  

Authenticity

Q: Is every slab authentic?

Yes. Every slab is authenticated by hand at PUSHAS before it ships, and every slab carries a unique certification number from its grader that you can look up yourself.

Q: Will I receive the slab in the photos?

Images show this card for reference. You receive the same card at the grade you select, sealed in its own slab with its own certification number. Graders hold every copy at a given grade to the same standard.

Q: How do I verify my slab?

Every grading company runs a public certificate lookup. Enter the certification number printed on your slab's label to see the card and grade on record. For PSA, use psacard.com/cert.

Grading

Q: What does the grade mean?

The grade describes the card's condition when it was graded: corners, edges, surface and centering, on a scale of 1 to 10. Each grader publishes its own standards, and some use half grades or special labels at the top of the scale. Tap "What do grades mean?" above for the full scale.

Q: Why do prices differ between grades?

  • Higher grades are rarer, so they command a premium
  • Each grade is listed by vetted sellers on the PUSHAS marketplace
  • For every grade, the best available price is the one shown

Returns

Q: Can I return a slab?

Yes. Slabs follow our standard returns policy, provided the slab comes back sealed, intact and unopened, exactly as it arrived. A slab that has been opened, cracked, tampered with or damaged after delivery can't be returned.
