Which print variants of 42 exist, and what do they cost?

Galvantula 42 is on record in 2 print finishes — Normal and Reverse Holofoil — and each one carries its own price, so which copy you are buying decides what it is worth.

Both panes are the same card, and the difference is simply where the light sits — that is how a finish is identified in the hand. The price beside each one follows that difference. If you have motion reduced on your device the tilt stops and only the light remains.

On cards that were given several finishes the gap is wide — an early 1st Edition print can run five to eight times the plain one. Same artwork, same number, and the price is decided by a single mark under the picture.

Galvantula 42 is one of those cards: it is on record in 2 finishes — Normal and Reverse Holofoil, and those records run from $0.53 to $2.61. Which finish a listing is offering decides most of what the copy is worth, so it is the first thing to check before comparing prices.

How far apart are the Galvantula prints in price?

This name was printed 22 times across different sets. Some share the very same artwork in a different edition; others carry different art or different attacks under the same name. Set, rarity and version, not the Pokémon, decide the gap between them.

An illustrator is a way of sorting cards, not a reason for their price. Buying another card by the same hand does not carry the price across — what makes the price is the Pokémon, the rarity and the year, and the numbers for that sit in the ranking section.

A price quoted in euros moves with the exchange rate, and an order that crosses a border can pick up import duty on arrival, so a European total can change place between one day and the next.

Which Pokémon cards moved most since yesterday?

Both lists are recalculated once a day, after the source archive is refreshed — the readings compared here are August 13, 2026 against August 14, 2026. Cards under $5 are left out of the ranking, because a one-cent move on a card worth a few cents becomes a double-digit percentage and would bury everything else.

Galvantula 42 price — frequently asked questions

How much is Galvantula 42 worth?

Galvantula 42 has a market price of $2.61, and the cheapest copy on sale is $0.61, read on August 14, 2026. Both figures are for ungraded cards.

Is Galvantula 42 rare?

Galvantula 42 is a Rare, which means it was pulled from Steam Siege packs at the rate that rarity is inserted into them. Its supply is set by how many packs were opened, and it carries the set number printed under the picture. Among 17 priced Galvantula prints it sits at number 4, so it sits in the upper third of what this Pokémon costs, which is where the cards people chase are.

Why is another Galvantula selling for much more?

Galvantula was printed in 22 different sets. The artwork looks alike, but the set name and the card number under the picture are different, and so is the price. Check the number before you buy.

Should I get Galvantula graded?

No grading figure for Galvantula 42 is published here. Graded prices and population counts come from paid grading services under commercial plans that are not in use on this site, so the question cannot be answered with data. What can be said is the ungraded price above, which is the floor any grading decision starts from.

Is the German or French Galvantula cheaper?

No. The six European language printings of Galvantula share one product record, so they trade at the same price. Only the Japanese release is a separate card, because Japan uses a different set and numbering system.

Does tournament play affect what Galvantula 42 sells for?

Yes, and mostly by keeping it out. Galvantula 42 is legal in Unlimited and Expanded only, so it is not bought to fill a competitive deck — its price is set by collectors instead, which is why it moves with condition and print rather than with the season's results.

Do these Galvantula prices include shipping or tax?

No. Every figure on this page is the listed price of Galvantula 42 itself. Shipping, import duty and marketplace fees are added on top by the seller.

How often does the Galvantula 42 price update?

Once a day. The Galvantula 42 archive behind this page holds 381 daily readings, the oldest from July 30, 2025 and the newest from August 14, 2026.
