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 Nearly Headless Nick
Nearly Headless Nick 13/116 is an English Holo Portrait Premium character card from the 2001 Wizards of the Coast Harry Potter TCG Base Set. Collectors search for it because it is the base-set premium holo for a recognizable Hogwarts ghost and has recent raw and PSA 8 sold pages available.
Why this card matters
Verified factNearly Headless Nick appears in the premium-card section of the 2001 Base Set checklist as card 13, a Character card with Gryffindor subtype and Holo finish. The checklist credits Cindi Salans Rosenheim as artist. As with the other early WotC Harry Potter premium portraits, the card’s importance is tied to exact identity: character, set, number, language, finish, and condition must all match before a sale is usable. [1][2]
Identifying the exact version
AnalysisThe version modeled here is English Nearly Headless Nick 13/116, Holo Portrait Premium, from the WotC Base Set. Confirm the name, number, English text, and holo-portrait finish. Do not merge it with later Harry Potter products, non-English copies, or listings that put the same character into the wrong set. The seed edition split was not verified from opened references, so the adopted variant is the verified English Holo Portrait Premium version only. [1][2]
What moves the price between versions and grades
Verified factThe opened comps show different buyer categories. A raw near-mint eBay sold page displayed $6.99 on 2026-07-14, while a PSA 8 eBay sold page displayed $44.95 on 2026-07-21. That difference should not be treated as a universal grading premium; it is two observed transactions. Future comps should separate raw condition, PSA grade, other graders, auction versus fixed price, and whether shipping was included. [3][4][6]
Authenticity checks
Verified factCompare against official references; multiple checks; no destructive tests; copied cert numbers exist. For Nearly Headless Nick, inspect card number 13/116, character name, English text, holo-portrait finish, border, back, and print quality. For slabs, match the cert and label to the physical card and seller images. PSA warns that cert verification does not guarantee the web-listed item is genuine, so seller evidence still matters.
