Graded GEM MINT 10 by PSA. Presented is an ultra high-grade example of #2 Articuno Holographic from the iconic 1999 Pokemon Fossil 1st Edition set. One of the original 151 Pokemon, Articuno made his first appearance in the 1999 Fossil set. In addition to being the rarest cards in the Pokemon sets, holographic cards are also more susceptible to condition flaws, especially surface scratching. With perfect centering, a clean surface and reverse, and no chipping on the yellow borders, this card is flawless. The Fossil set's skeletal identifying logo can be found just beneath the lower right corner of the image, opposite the "Edition 1" marking displayed under the lower left corner of the image. This is an outstanding ultra high-grade example that would make a great addition to any Pokemon or nonsport collection. Reserve $200. Estimate (open).
