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 Human Chess Game
Human Chess Game #11/116 is a Foil Premium Adventure card from the 2001 Wizards of the Coast Harry Potter TCG Base Set. Collectors search for it because it is one of the early Base Set foil premiums and has recent PSA 9 transaction records visible through PSA cert pages.
Why this card matters
Verified factHuman Chess Game #11/116 sits in the early premium portion of the 116-card Base Set checklist and is cataloged as a Foil Premium Adventure. The card references a memorable first-book scene, but the collectible record should remain factual: set, number, finish, language, and condition drive the evidence. The opened PSA records provide a better basis for recent PSA 9 comps than broad Harry Potter TCG price claims. [1][2][3]
Identifying the exact version
Verified factThe target card is English Base Set Human Chess Game #11/116 with foil finish and Ron Spears artwork. PSA cert pages identify graded examples as 2001 WotC Harry Potter #11 Human Chess Game Foil. Do not use non-WotC film cards, game cards, or other chess-scene collectibles as comps. For slabs, record PSA, grade 9, and the cert or lot detail separately from raw examples. [2][3]
What moves the price between versions and grades
AnalysisThe opened PSA page showed five PSA 9 eBay sales from June through September 2026, ranging from $52.81 to $110.65. The sale types included fixed price and Best Offer, so the venue field matters. Because all retained sales are PSA 9, they do not establish raw, PSA 8, PSA 10, CGC, or BGS values for this card. [3]
Authenticity checks
Verified factCompare against the exact #11/116 foil reference: Human Chess Game name, Adventure type, English text, Ron Spears artwork, Base Set back, and foil surface. Use several checks together and avoid destructive testing. For graded examples, match the PSA cert data to the slab and visible card, while remembering that PSA says copied certification numbers and counterfeit inserts can exist. [2][4][5]
