What is Iron Hands ex worth?
Iron Hands ex is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Prismatic Evolutions's value. The rarity tier decides most of it, since the same card prints at several tiers with very different prices. In top-grade 1st Edition, Prismatic Evolutions holos range from the mid hundreds for the lesser cards up to the set's marquee chase; raw and Unlimited copies trade for a fraction of that. The live market price above shows the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Iron Hands ex before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Grading Iron Hands ex comes down to the holo surface and the borders. The era's foil scratches easily, so even a pack-fresh Iron Hands ex can drop from a 10 to a 9 on a single hairline. Inspect the window at an angle and the corners against the frame.
If you are collecting Iron Hands ex
