golbat pokemon card - Delta Species 43/113 [Colorless]. Golbat 1st Edition Fossil 34/62

Historical Background The Pokmon Trading Card Game launched in Japan in 1996

Many depict the shiny Pokmon against a white background with star and glitter effects

All of these elements make the set feel unique, but whats most impressive is the care put into so many of the individual cards and how they tell a story

And certainly cheap enough that you have a good shot at playing some of the cards you drew

All those dots and layers create the picture of the card that you know

But sales figures on the website Price Charting suggest that, if the card is in good nick, even the most common first edition Pokmon cards, a Weedle or Caterpie, can go for a couple of hundred dollars
