Each row compares the middle price of the whole group on two days. It is not the change of any single card — a card can fall while the group rises, which is what the movers list below shows.
The typical Classic Collection card rose from $4.82 to $6.43 over the 11 months on file — +33.4%. A rising middle means the ordinary card of this group got dearer, not just the headline one at the top of the list.
How Classic Collection Pokémon card prices are spread
Each half circle is the whole price range of the 25 priced Classic Collection cards, from $0.46 to $170.72, with the tenfold steps evenly spaced. The last one is read differently — it counts cards rather than dollars, and says so in its own label.
How every Classic Collection card with a price falls into price bands — 25 cards counted, not just the ones drawn above. Each track is the whole group, so the empty part of a bar is the share that sits outside that band.
The longest bar is where an ordinary Classic Collection card actually sits. Bands read the market price of each card on August 14, 2026.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Under $1 | 16.0% | 4 cards |
| $1 to $5 | 28.0% | 7 cards |

| Dearest | $170.72 | $170.72 |
The two columns are different groups of cards, not two readings of the same one — the right column is the dearest end of the left one. "Typical" is the middle price, which half the cards sit below; "average" is pulled upward by the few very expensive cards, which is why the two differ.
The average price of a Classic Collection card is $20.43 while the typical one is $6.43. The gap between those two numbers is the shape of this group: a small number of very expensive cards is dragging the average far above what most cards actually cost.
What three quarters of the 25 priced Classic Collection cards cost
One in four Classic Collection cards costs $2.64 or less, half cost $6.43 or less, and three in four cost $16.59 or less. Only the top quarter runs past $16.59, and the dearest tenth starts at $40.21.
