Here’s a clear guide to its value and what to do next.
What is the Lugia V Alt Art card?
The Lugia V Alternate Art (186/195) comes from the 2022 Silver Tempest set. Tying into Lugia’s enduring popularity as a fan-favourite legendary, the artwork depicts it soaring dramatically over the sea. As a secret-rare alt art from a widely opened set, it became one of the standout chase cards of its release and remains highly collectible.
So, how much is Lugia V Alt Art worth?
As a rough UK guide, a raw near-mint copy usually sells for around £70–£140, while a gem-mint PSA 10 can reach £180–£350 depending on demand. Values shift with the market, so use these as a guideline and seek a proper valuation before selling.
What affects the value?
- Condition — centring and clean edges are crucial on alt arts.
- Grade — a PSA 10 carries a significant premium over raw copies.
- Authenticity — always make sure your card is genuine before selling.
- Demand — Lugia’s popularity keeps interest in this card strong.
Should you grade it?
