No opened source established 1st Edition versus Unlimited card-level variants. ## Why this card matters Vault 713 identifies Unicorn #20/116 as a Care of Magical Creatures Foil Premium and notes the Unicorn as a notable foil card in the Base Set. That makes the exact foil version important to preserve in the record. The card’s appeal is tied to early Harry Potter TCG collecting, creature-card nostalgia, and condition-sensitive foil surfaces rather than any established public print-run number. ## Identifying the exact version The target version is English Base Set Unicorn #20/116 with foil finish, Creature type, Unicorn subtype, and Zina Saunders artwork. PriceCharting separates a Unicorn [Foil] #20 page from a generic Unicorn #20 page, which is a useful warning that marketplace records can split or merge variants differently. Do not use Kayou, Artbox, Universal, or other Harry Potter Unicorn-themed items as comps. ## What moves the price between versions and grades The opened sale evidence was sparse: PSA showed one PSA 6 eBay auction sale in August 2026, and PriceCharting showed two raw eBay-feed sales in September 2026. The raw entries displayed both accepted and listed amounts, so the lower price was recorded as the transaction price and the higher display was noted. Grade, foil condition, scratches, and surface dents are likely the largest comparison filters. ## Authenticity checks Compare the card against the exact #20/116 foil reference, including the English text, card number, foil surface, Creature type, and back design. Use multiple checks together and avoid destructive tests. A slabbed copy should match the cert subject, number, grade, and visible card, but PSA cautions that certification lookup does not eliminate counterfeit risk because copied numbers can exist. ## Common misconceptions - **Myth:** The Unicorn foil has an established public print run. **What the evidence says:** No public print-run source was found in this pass; PSA population, when cited, is only a graded-copy count. - **Myth:** Raw Unicorn foil sales and PSA sales can be averaged together. **What the evidence says:** Ch03 requires raw and graded cards to be separated because grading changes the comparable object. - **Myth:** The highest displayed amount on an aggregated row is always the sale price. **What the evidence says:** The PriceCharting Unicorn rows displayed two amounts; the lower amount was recorded as the observed sale price and the higher display was noted rather than treated as a second sale. - **Myth:** The name Unicorn is enough for identity. **What the evidence says:** The evidence supports using set, number, finish, language, and publisher; names alone are insufficient across Harry Potter card products. ## FAQ ### How much did raw Unicorn #20/116 Foil sell for recently?
