2000 Pokémon Neo Genesis Lugia Holo #9/111 (Unlimited)
Overview The definitive cover star of the Johto era. Illustrated by Hironobu Yoshida, the Neo Genesis Lugia is an absolute cornerstone of any high-end vintage collection. Due to the notoriously sensitive swirly holofoil stock used in the Neo era, finding fronts this clean is an absolute premium.
Set: Neo Genesis (Unlimited)
Card Number: 9/111
Rarity: Holo Rare
Front Condition Assessment: Near Mint-Mint (NM-MT). The centering on this copy looks excellent—well within the standard thresholds for high-grade submissions. The silver-white borders are entirely sharp, and the print color and registration are crisp.
PSA Grade Projection (With a near-perfect back): PSA 8 to PSA 9. Neo Genesis cards are notoriously brutal to grade due to print lines and micro-wear, but with a pristine back and zero hidden surface hairlines, this sits comfortably as a strong candidate for a high-grade slab.
