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.
Compare grading math across cards · 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 Hermione, Top Student
Hermione, Top Student 18/80 is a Rare character card from Wizards of the Coast's 2002 Diagon Alley expansion. Collectors search for it because Hermione is a central character and the holo portrait premium is a separate target from the normal rare.
Why this card matters
Verified factHermione, Top Student is one of the named character rares in Diagon Alley, and the opened set page identifies Hermione among the set's notable holo portrait premium chase cards. The individual card page lists Hermione as a Witch, Gryffindor, and Unique character. Its demand evidence should be tied to the exact card, finish, and language rather than to Hermione collectibles generally, because Harry Potter cards span multiple manufacturers and formats. [1]
Identifying the exact version
Verified factThe exact identity is DA 18/80, Hermione, Top Student. The opened reference separates English holo portrait premium and English normal rare printings and also lists French, German, Italian, and Japanese versions. A marketplace title saying Hermione or Top Student is not enough; the listing photos and item specifics should confirm Diagon Alley, 18/80, English, and whether the card is holo portrait premium or normal rare. [1][2]
What moves the price between versions and grades
AnalysisThe opened dated sale found here was an English raw holo portrait copy sold for US $55.00 on August 31, 2026 and described as lightly played or excellent. That does not establish a PSA, CGC, or BGS value, and it does not price the normal rare printing. For this card, character demand, finish, raw condition, and grader/grade should be treated as separate inputs before building a price range. [2][5]
Authenticity checks
Verified factUse the opened reference to confirm the DA set, 18/80 number, Hermione, Top Student name, English language, and the correct finish. For raw cards, inspect corners, edge whitening, surface scratches, print lines, and the back image rather than relying on a seller's near-mint statement. For graded cards, verify the cert and compare the holder to the listing photos because PSA warns that cert numbers alone do not prove the physical slab is genuine. [1][3][4]
Telling the versions apart
| Version | How to identify it |
|---|---|
| Unlimited holo portrait premium | English Diagon Alley Hermione, Top Student, card 18/80, with Holo Portrait Premium finish. |
| Unlimited non-holo rare | English Diagon Alley Hermione, Top Student, card 18/80, normal finish with Rare rarity and no holo portrait effect. |
