My box is pretty scuffed up, but you get the idea. One side shows pictures of the front and back of the card, and the back of the box shows the other 5 in the set. The box features art of the pokemon card inside, so you know exactly what you’re getting. Mine didn’t (since it was a gift), but I’m fairly certain a new set comes with a certificate of authenticity. So with this item, you actually get quite a bit! It comes with a nice box, decorated on all four sides, a shiny pokeball, and a double-sided card. You can get one from $5-10, some even sealed and complete-in-box, so don’t get tricked into overpaying. I got all of mine as giveaways from friends who didn’t want them, but don’t worry about availability! You’d think that these would be popular and hard to find, but these are actually hugely available.
I traded a Mewtwo card for an, admittedly, beat-up Jigglypuff card, and I later obtained the box to complete the set. Now, I’ve personally got the Pikachu and Jigglypuff cards. These guys came out in 1999, so they’re way old! In addition to Jigglypuff, there is also a card for Charizard, Mewtwo, Poliwhirl, Togepi, and of course, Pikachu. The Pokémon Trading Card Game gold Burger King cards will likely never make fans rich, as there are ultimately too many of them out there in great condition to create a market of low supply and high demand.Today, let’s take a look at an old Burger King promotional item: their gold-plated Jigglypuff Pokemon card! The same cannot be said for the Burger King promotional, which was picked up by millions of fans around the world. Other TCG collectibles such as the infamous Pikachu Illustrator Pokémon card, were only given out in promotional events. Most never even owned the rare 1st edition print run, which was released before the unlimited set that many fans grew up with. When the TCG launched in 1999, many kids played with their cards and traded them on school playgrounds. As a result, the gold Pokémon cards have an incredibly high population.
Making matters worse, is that everyone collected them believing they would be worth something someday and purposely set them aside in storage. Unlike many rare Pokémon TCG Collectors Editions that were limited, the gold Burger King collectibles were mass-manufactured. If the collectible isn't sealed, they are worth even less at around ten dollars. According to sales data from auction sites like eBay, the gold Pokémon cards sell on average for $18, with some selling for as high as $30.
