Grading math for this card
Prefilled with the latest qualifying sale for each grade where one exists. Replace any value with your own. We never suggest what grade your copy will get.
Formula from Grading: condition, uncertainty, and economics: grading pays only if your honest chance of the high grade exceeds (raw net + cost − other-outcome net) ÷ (high-grade net − other-outcome net). The 13% fee is an editable assumption, not a quoted tariff.
About Dean Thomas
Dean Thomas 1/116 is the first numbered card in the 2001 Wizards of the Coast Harry Potter TCG Base Set and is an English Holo Portrait Premium character card. Collectors search for it because it is a low-numbered base-set premium holo and appears in both raw and PSA-slabbed sales.
Why this card matters
Verified factDean Thomas is card 1/116 in the Base Set checklist and is listed among the 20 premium cards. The checklist identifies it as a Holo Portrait Premium character card, Wizard - Gryffindor, with Jon Foster credited as artist. The Vault 713 page also identifies the card as Base 1/116 and gives its Holo Portrait Premium rarity, supporting the exact identity used here. [1][2]
Identifying the exact version
AnalysisThe exact card is English Dean Thomas 1/116 from the WotC Base Set. Confirm the 1/116 number, Dean Thomas name, English rules text, Character type, Gryffindor subtype, Unique keyword, and holo-portrait finish. Do not rely on broad words like foil, rare, or Harry Potter TCG without seeing the number and photos. This pass did not verify a separate 1st Edition or Unlimited version, so those labels remain unadopted unless a future source proves them. [1][2]
What moves the price between versions and grades
Verified factThe opened sales separate a PSA 8 slab from a raw lightly played card. The PSA 8 eBay sold page displayed $49.99 on 2026-09-09, while a raw LP eBay Australia sold page displayed US $5.00 on 2026-07-21. These two sales should not be averaged into a single value because they reflect different condition evidence, buyer confidence, and selling formats. Any future PSA 9 or PSA 10 comp should be recorded separately. [3][4][6]
Authenticity checks
Verified factCompare against official references; multiple checks; no destructive tests; copied cert numbers exist. For Dean Thomas, verify the card number 1/116, English text, Base Set identity, holo-portrait finish, and back design. If slabbed, match the cert, label, grade, and holder to seller photos. PSA cert verification is useful, but PSA warns that a cert lookup does not eliminate risk because counterfeit inserts can use copied certification numbers. [5][6]
