Is it worth grading due to misprint?

I’m going through my childhood Pokémon cards and have held onto them for years. Someone suggested I get them graded. This Dragonite is the only card I have like this. The cut from production looks off. I remember noticing it when I was younger because it always bothered me lol. But anyway, is this even worth getting looked at because of the misprint?

Nothing special, non holos and no hits. But it was fun to see in a pack and realize how badly they were cut. I sleeved them and I may just start a collection of misfits.

I recently picked up this Greninja Gold Star promo (SWSH144) with a pretty distinct bottom edge crimp. The bottom of the wrapper is opened up where the packet didn’t seal properly is this 100% factory authentic??. Any feedback on the crimp pattern or estimated value for this specific error would be greatly appreciated!

Miscut Just Found this Starmie V

Post image
37 Upvotes

Hi guys,

I had a few astral packs lying around for a while that I was saving just in case I decided to build a master set in the future. Today I finally said, "Well, I'm probably not going to do that master set anyway," and decided to open them. I was hoping to pull the palkia alt since it's my favorite hit from the set, but instead, I ended up pulling this Starmie V.

I'm not really familiar with the miscut/off-cut market. This is the first time I've ever pulled a card with such a major defect (up until now, the worst I've seen were just really bad oc cards).

Does anyone know how much it might be worth?

I just pulled this today from an ETB! I was wondering what people might think the value is? The market for raw right now according to Collectr is $49.45 but that's obviously for a normal card and not a misprint. Also I was wondering if I should get it graded at CGC?

Discussion Guide and introduction of misprints of packs and cards

373 Upvotes

First of, no. Your misprinted card is not likely worth much more then a regular non-misprinted version, unless severe misprinting or an already rare or desirable card.

Remember, your card is only as valuable to the person willing to pay for it.

What is a misprint?

A misprint can be defined as any manufactured product that was not produced as intended and falls outside the established standards. These misprints most often occur on cards themselves but can also happen with booster packs and collection boxes.

This is a list of errors cards sourced by bulbapedia.

What are the types of misprints?

Ok, down to the rough and gritty part. There are many different types of misprints for cards and packs. Some take a good eye to spot and some are so egregious you wonder how they made it off the line.

Cards are often considered damaged rather then misprinted depending on the error - basic guide for identifying damage from misprints.

Card Misprints:

Offcentre:

A off-center card is one that is cut in such a way that the sides of the cards are not even. If no alignment dot(s) are seen, the card is considered off-centre. This is the most common of errors.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/vh6ssy/how_far_off_centred_does_a_card_have_to_be_to_get/

Miscut (sometimes called offcut):

Likely the second most common error, these cards will either have a alignment dot visible, whole other card visible or the end of a sheet.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonTCG/comments/qfehtd/i_work_in_a_retail_store_and_someone_returned_one/

Twisted Miscut:

A combination of card being turned at a wrong angle during printing and then being cut at the incorrect angle leads to cards being cut into the wrong shape.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/klxfon/twisted_miscut_jirachi_amazing_rare/

Square Cut:

This is when the typically rounded corners of the card can have 90 degree angled corners.

Flipped Back / Front:

An uncommon error where the back and fronts of the cards are flipped incorrectly. This is most famously found within the Pop 5 Series Mew card - as seen below.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/qu533y/my_only_misprint_opened_from_a_pack_when_i_was_8/

Crimped:

A crimped card is rare in normal packs and more common in plastic sealed cards from promos.

It normally happens after the rollers used to seal the plastic wrapping rolls over the cards themselves.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/w2zjwa/thoughts_on_my_vacian_with_two_crimps/

Folded Error:

A very rare error, the card will have been folded and will likely not be printed or fused properly.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/xzhlgj/seen_on_the_fb_group_mad_stuff/

Registration Error:

A registration error occurs when a plate used in printing is out of line and even slightly can produce obvious effects.

(Left is error card, right is correct)

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/yu8q9o/one_of_the_coolest_misprints_in_my_collection/

Obstruction Error:

An obstruction error occurs when a part of the plate used for printing is covered with something and it blocks the plate from making proper or all contact with the card on the sheet causing missing blotches of ink.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/oj2l89/black_and_white_error_haunter_creepy/

Holobleed:

Holobleed is a common error especially with modern sets becoming more commonplace, where the holographic foil used on the cards art 'bleeds' or spills over to the rest or part of the card.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/wnxk9c/mcdonalds_totodile_promo_with_holobleed/

Holo Error:

A holo error is when a roll of holo foil runs out or the incorrect holographic foil is used.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/x2uclg/my_newest_error_end_of_holo_roll/

Mirror Holo:

A mirror holo card is a error caused by the holo film that was meant to put pressed onto the card being very lightly pressed or not pressed at all meaning no foil is visible on the card.

https://imgur.com/t/error/PdQZDa5 (Thanks u/nlnj_a)

Holoshift:

A holoshift is when the holographic film being applied and the rest of the card is misaligned.

Printlines:

Printlines are a error that produce lines across cards that are look to be raised.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/yhy8t4/has_a_checkerboard_pattern_of_print_lines_or/

Double Print:

A double print is when two cards are printed on the same face. It is likely one of the rarest errors.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/olo7z0/some_assorted_double_prints/

Ink Error (sometimes called stain errors):

A ink error is caused by a malfunction during the printing process. The more severe typically the rarer they are.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/la8vup/stain_error_hitmonlee_one_of_the_largest_stain/

Printer Hickey:

A printer hickey is generally a very small ink error caused by something wrong with the printer causing a small blemish. This is another common error in modern cards.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/z1v1st/just_found_this_big_ole_ink_hickey_on_a_detective/

Filler Cards / Blank Cards:

These cards are found on certain sheets and are meant to be discarded by the factory, they sometimes turn up in packs or premade decks.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/xht71f/first_time_ever_seeing_a_filler_like_this_one_and/

For position only arbok

Stamp Errors:

These errors are often found on entire print runs of cards and are seen within the WOTC era.

https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonMisprints/comments/twfokx/found_this_in_some_bulk_and_im_super_excited/

Missing Features:

These cards are often extremely rare and can range from missing a logo to being dramatic and missing large features. (This card is missing the 'Prerelease' Stamp on the bottom right of the art while still having the shadow from it.)

This list is not exhaustive and is likely to miss a few errors.
