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 Red-Eyes Black Dragon
Red-Eyes Black Dragon 301-056 is a Japanese OCG Ultimate Rare from The New Ruler, dated 2002-05-16 on the official OCG list. Collectors search it because it is an early Japanese Ultimate Rare treatment of Red-Eyes, but the exact 301-056 code is essential.
Why this card matters
Verified fact[verified] Konami’s OCG list for 新たなる支配者 / The New Ruler gives the set date as 2002-05-16 and lists 301-056 Red-Eyes Black Dragon as Ultimate Rare. The entry records DARK attribute, Level 7, Dragon type, 2400 ATK and 2000 DEF. This card should be analyzed as a specific Japanese Ultimate Rare issue, not as a generic Red-Eyes Black Dragon collectible. [1]
Identifying the exact version
Verified fact[verified] Confirm the printed code 301-056, Japanese name レッドアイズ・ブラックドラゴン / 真紅眼の黒竜, Ultimate Rare treatment and The New Ruler set. The same character appears in many products, and the OCG list also shows later and different Japanese Red-Eyes entries elsewhere. A valid comp must match the Japanese 301-056 Ultimate Rare identity, not just the English name Red-Eyes Black Dragon. [1]
What moves the price between versions and grades
Analysis[analysis] The primary pricing drivers are raw condition, visible Ultimate Rare surface quality, centering, grader and grade. Aggregator pages surfaced during research, but no acceptable opened auction lot, PSA sale page or eBay sold page with exact price and date was retained for this card. Under Chapter 03, the correct action is to leave the sales array empty instead of importing unsourced or aggregated numbers. [1]
Authenticity checks
Verified fact[verified] Compare against official references; multiple checks; no destructive tests; copied cert numbers exist. For 301-056, match the set code, Japanese text, Ultimate Rare embossing, stats, passcode and card back against official and known-authentic examples. Because surface texture and foil are central to this version, require clear angled photos, but avoid bending, scratching, light-box myths or other destructive tests. [1]
