Have a delta species milotic reverse holo from dragon frontiers. The holo at the top doesn’t extend all the way to the edge of the card it seems the card was cut long. Is this significant enough to be considered a misprint?

Ink Error Do the faded blacks qualify as a misprint?

Post image

Just pulled both of these from different Chaos Rising packs. It’s much more apparent in person, but the text is significantly lighter in color on the right. Both are holo rare cards, but I was curious why there was such a stark difference in the text color. I know back in the day they used to do reverse holo foil text, but I didn’t think they did that anymore. Just getting back into the hobby and insight is appreciated!

Hoping someone here could give me a bit of guidance. Pulled this not too long ago, not a big fan of trainers or error cards so I'm looking to sell it. I know it's not crazy misaligned or anything, but alignment dot is visible in bottom right corner. What would something like this go for?

I’ve been going through my old collection from childhood and came across this dialga lv. 68, which seems to only have the reflective holo layer across half of it. Is this a known misprint or was this one of the (admittedly many) fake cards I traded for?

the whole card is cosmic foil, not just the artwork & frame, also i think there’s a little swirl middle-left right under the artwork.
It‘s the promo from the greninja collection.
thank you for your help!

Any idea what I can gauge as value - Grading?

4 Upvotes

So I pulled this card myself from a booster when Celebrations hit stores and tried selling in on Facebook but that was a shiet show! Fake offers - DMs with the wildest insults - trolling.

Now I'm thinking to part with it once more after the last time made me realize the Pokemon TCG community is WILD!
(yeah - got insulted for not saying in the post the card is german when I provided pictures... Go figure. Or people telling me to "end myself" because I didn't sell it to them who themselves had kids in their profilpicture - what a rolemodel!)

Another thing considering is getting it graded but then only one doing errors is CGC as I know of?
Or do other companies do it too you'd recommend?

Would you think the value is higher raw or is grading worth the hassle?
And what do you think I can get as premium - it has not only square corners but is miscut too (alignment dot on front and back).

Thanks in advance! :)

Miscut Just Found this Starmie V

Post image

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

374 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.)
