$660,000, Record Breaking sale. Now, crossed to a different Grade. Originally graded by a manual grading company and sold as an 8 (NM-MT). Now regraded as a TAG 933 (9 Mint) with the transparent data to support it. The card didn’t change. The industry standards and level of scrutiny didn’t change. The method of evaluation did: TAG technology. For decades, grading has relied on human judgment. Experience mattered. Reputation mattered. But subjectivity was unavoidable. Manual grading gives you an opinion without any explanation or data to support it. Collectors should not be left wondering “why?” TAG was built on a different premise: If a grade matters, the process behind it should be measurable, visible, and consistently applied to every card. Each grade should be accompanied by a report identifying the meaningful defects. On this Tom Brady card, the surface is exceptionally clean. The corners and edges are sharp. The centering narrowly qualifies for Gem Mint, measuring just within 55/45 (F 46.25L/53.75R 45.98T/54.02B B 51.05L / 48.95R 50.32T / 49.68B) The primary DING was the back right corner which had some slight corner wear. A manufacturer-origin holo line is present along the top edge — a common Kaboom characteristic that does not prevent Gem Mint qualification. This card does not, and should not, qualify as Gem Mint. But its quality exceeds the grading standard of an 8. The card is now TAG’d as a 9 (933), with its grading data accessible to everyone in the pop report. Trust shouldn’t be earned through branding or legacy. Trust is earned through transparency. This is the standard of grading every card, and collector, deserves. DEFECTS IDENTIFIED OF NOTABLE GRADE SIGNIFICANCE (DINGs) Included: FRONT RIGHT - CORNER WEAR BOTTOM RIGHT - CORNER WEAR OTHER ANNOTATED DEFECTS: TOP FRONT - HOLO LINE (ORGANIC/MFR.)

This Pokémon Illustrator is not only one of the rarest cards in existence but also among the cleanest in condition, as evidenced by the TAG Digital Image and Grading Report (DIG). This card's centering measured precisely 54.8/45.1 LR x 45.1/51.8 TB, which is within the 55/45 Gem Mint industry standard. The card received a total TAG Score of 955 (Gem Mint 10) on the 1000 point scale, as determined by our multi-patented TAG technology. It is currently the RANK 1, making it the CROWN GEM, TAG Illustrator. 🎁 Repost/Like for a chance to win a TAG 10 Pokémon mystery slab! ✨ + Save on your first TAG Grading submission by signing up here: With only 39 copies officially distributed, this card was crafted as the prize for the CoroCoro Comic Illustration Contest held in 1997/98. In July 2021, a similar Gem Mint 10 Pokémon Illustrator (graded by another third-party grader) set a world record as the most expensive Pokémon card ever sold/traded (deal value est. $5.275 million.) The card artwork of Pikachu holding a paintbrush was done by none other than the creator of Pikachu, Atsuko Nishida. The Katakana characters have been inscribed along side the other card data on the top of the transparent TAG slab.
