No acceptable opened source established a non-premium version for this exact card. ## Why this card matters The card matters because it is the main character's card in the first Wizards of the Coast Harry Potter TCG Base Set, a 116-card release according to the opened checklist reference. Card 8 is identified as Harry Potter and as a Holo Portrait Premium. That makes exact finish, edition and language important; a Base Set Harry 8/116 holo should not be merged with later Harry Potter TCG cards, Artbox film cards or unrelated Harry Potter collectibles. ## Identifying the exact version Record the card as Harry Potter, Base Set, 8/116, English, Wizards of the Coast and Holo Portrait Premium. Then check edition: 1st Edition and Unlimited copies should remain separate. The opened eBay pages found during research showed sold or ended listings with unclear accepted best-offer prices, so they were not used as accepted sale records. For pricing, require a page that shows the actual transaction price and date for the exact version. ## What moves the price between versions and grades The key separations are edition, finish, language, grader and grade. A raw Unlimited holo, a PSA 8, a PSA 9 and a CGC 9 are not interchangeable, even when the title says Harry Potter 8/116. Chapter 03 requires sold comparables only, and the opened best-offer eBay pages did not establish the actual accepted price. Those observations belong in an exclusion log rather than the sales array. ## Authenticity checks Compare against official references; multiple checks; no destructive tests; copied cert numbers exist. For raw copies, check English language, card number 8/116, Base Set styling, holo portrait premium finish, edges, surface and back design against a known authentic example. For slabs, verify the cert and then compare the slab and card photos. Avoid treating seller phrases like rookie, ghost rare or grail as identity evidence. ## Common misconceptions - **Myth:** Population is the same thing as print run. **What the evidence says:** Chapter 02 says population is a grader's count of submitted and graded copies, not a count of all copies made or still existing. - **Myth:** An eBay best-offer listing proves the displayed asking price was paid. **What the evidence says:** Chapter 03 requires the actual accepted sale price. The opened best-offer pages did not show that accepted amount, so they were excluded. - **Myth:** All Harry Potter 8/116 cards can be priced together. **What the evidence says:** Edition, language, finish, grader and grade must stay separate. A 1st Edition holo and Unlimited holo are not the same comparable. ## FAQ ### What card is Harry Potter 8/116? It is the Harry Potter Holo Portrait Premium card from the 116-card Wizards of the Coast Harry Potter TCG Base Set. ### How much is a PSA 10 Harry Potter 8/116 worth? Not established in this research because no opened PSA 10 sale page with price and date was found. ### How do I tell 1st Edition from Unlimited? Check for the 1st Edition mark and keep that copy separate from an otherwise matching Unlimited Holo Portrait Premium. ### Are best-offer eBay listings included as sales here? No, the opened best-offer pages did not show the actual accepted price, so they were excluded from the sales array. ### How many PSA 10 copies exist? Not established here with a population source that states an as-of date, so the population field is left blank. ## Sources 1.
