Most Valuable Venusaur Cards: A 1st Edition PSA 10 Hit $75,640 (2026)

The most valuable Venusaur card with a confirmed sale is a 1999 Base Set 1st Edition Venusaur #15 graded PSA 10, which sold for $75,640 including buyer's premium at Goldin in February 2026. Its holder carries a "Logan Paul Break" label, and SI Collectibles reported it alongside the Charizard and Blastoise from the same break. The Logan Paul Venusaur sold for far less than the Charizard and Blastoise from the same break, but everyday 1st Edition PSA 10s of Venusaur and Blastoise are close: PriceCharting valued them at about $36,500 and $37,500 on October 8, 2026. Below are the biggest Venusaur sales we could match to an auction lot page, what each print is worth now, and what to know before you buy one.

Current as of October 8, 2026. Ranked prices are public sale results including buyer's premium. Value estimates are PriceCharting market prices.

Modern Venusaur: What It Sells For

• About $95 ungraded and about $433 in PSA 10, per PriceCharting on October 8, 2026

Venusaur vs Charizard and Blastoise

The same Logan Paul break produced all three 1st Edition starters in PSA 10, and they sold at Goldin in February 2026 for very different prices, per the Charizard and Blastoise lot pages and SI:

• Charizard: $954,800
• Blastoise: $138,880
• Venusaur: $75,640

Our take: the Logan Paul label roughly doubled the price. Unlabeled 1st Edition PSA 10s sold for $35,380 and $39,040 at Goldin in 2026, against $75,640 for the labeled copy. If you are pricing one, compare several recent sales of the same print and grade, not just the record.
