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 Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End
Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End IOC-000 is the Secret Rare Invasion of Chaos version of a major early chaos-era Yu-Gi-Oh! card. Collectors search for it because the card has both nostalgia and gameplay history, but exact edition and set code determine the collectible version.
Why this card matters
Verified factKonami's official database identifies Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End as a DARK Level 8 Dragon Effect Monster and lists IOC-000 in Invasion of Chaos as Secret Rare. The collector-relevant version in this batch is the English IOC-000 printing, not later reprints or different regional codes. Because this card name appears across multiple products, CardVolume should treat IOC-000 1st Edition and IOC-000 Unlimited as separate variants. [1]
Identifying the exact version
Verified factThe exact printed code is the first check: IOC-000 belongs to the original English Invasion of Chaos release in this seed, while later listings may show IOC-EN000 or other codes. For a pre-2014 English Yu-Gi-Oh! card, 1st Edition text should appear below the artwork; Unlimited lacks it. Secret Rare treatment, language, edition text, and region should be recorded before using any sale as a comparable. [1][2][3]
What moves the price between versions and grades
AnalysisThe main price filters are edition, grade, and whether the sale is for the original IOC-000 Secret Rare rather than a later reprint. A PSA price guide gives broad PSA guide values for Chaos Emperor Dragon in IOC, but a guide value is not a sold comparable under CardVolume's pricing rules. No opened primary sold page for a specific IOC-000 sale was established in this batch, so the sales array is intentionally left empty. [4]
Authenticity checks
Verified factCompare against official references; multiple checks; no destructive tests; copied cert numbers exist. For IOC-000, verify the card name, exact set code, edition text, Secret Rare treatment, card back, and the consistency of the photos with the claimed language and region. For slabs, verify cert details and images when possible, then still compare the physical card and holder because a copied cert number can appear in a fraudulent listing. [1][3][5]
Telling the versions apart
| Version | How to identify it |
|---|---|
| 1st Edition Secret Rare | Printed set code IOC-000, Secret Rare treatment, and 1st Edition text below the artwork; expected First Edition security foil is gold. |
| Unlimited Secret Rare | Printed set code IOC-000 and Secret Rare treatment, without 1st Edition text; expected Unlimited security foil is silver. |
