## How to identify each version

- **#12/116 Transfiguration Foil Premium**: Card number 12/116, Invisibility Cloak name, Item type, Gryffindor Unique subtype, foil finish, Scott Lewis artwork.

**Identity note:** Seed identity is supported as #12/116 foil premium. No opened source established 1st Edition versus Unlimited card-level variants.

## Why this card matters

Invisibility Cloak #12/116 is one of the early premium cards in the Base Set checklist, and Vault 713 identifies it as a Transfiguration Foil Premium item. Unlike the Hermione and Draco entries in this batch, the opened reference did not show a same-number normal variant. Its collector interest is tied to the recognizable story object, the early WotC set, and condition-sensitive foil surfaces.

## Identifying the exact version

The target card is English Base Set #12/116 with the Invisibility Cloak name, Item type, Gryffindor Unique subtype, and foil finish. PSA cert pages also identify graded examples as 2001 WotC Harry Potter #12 Invisibility Cloak Foil. For comps, keep PSA 8 and PSA 9 separate, and do not substitute another Harry Potter cloak-themed card from a different publisher or later collectible line.

## What moves the price between versions and grades

The opened PSA cert pages showed multiple PSA 9 eBay sales from 2025 and 2026 and separate PSA 8 sales in 2026. The PSA 9 records included auction, fixed-price, and Best Offer results, so venue format matters. Price interpretation should use the exact grader and grade first, then inspect whether an outlier sale repeated or represented a specific copy with unusual eye appeal.

## Authenticity checks

Compare against the exact #12/116 foil reference and confirm name, number, item type, subtype, text layout, foil surface, and English Base Set back. Use several checks together and avoid destructive tests. For slabs, compare the physical holder and card to the cert information; PSA warns that cert verification does not eliminate counterfeit risk because real numbers can be copied.

## Common misconceptions

- **Myth:** The Invisibility Cloak PSA population is the print run. **What the evidence says:** The PSA page reports graded-copy counts for a database category; ch02 says population is not the number of copies in existence.
- **Myth:** A PSA 9 sale can be used for any raw foil copy. **What the evidence says:** Ch03 requires raw and graded cards to be separated, and the opened sales are specifically PSA 8 or PSA 9 slab records.
- **Myth:** Every Invisibility Cloak collectible is this card. **What the evidence says:** The exact record is WotC Harry Potter TCG Base Set #12/116 Foil; other Harry Potter products or cloak-themed cards are different objects.
- **Myth:** A cert lookup alone proves the slab in a listing is genuine. **What the evidence says:** PSA explicitly warns that valid certification numbers can be copied, so the physical holder and seller evidence still matter.
