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 Mirror Force
Mirror Force is an English Ultra Rare Trap from the 2002 Metal Raiders booster set. Collectors search for it because it is one of the most recognizable early defensive Trap cards and appears in many later reprints, making exact set code and edition important.
Why this card matters
Verified factMirror Force matters because it is an early Yu-Gi-Oh! Trap card with strong nostalgia and many later substitutes. Konami's database records the original 2002 Metal Raiders printing as MRD-138 Ultra Rare, while later entries include different set codes and rarities. That makes the collectible object here the 2002 MRD-138 version, not merely any playable copy named Mirror Force. [1]
Identifying the exact version
Verified factStart with the printed set code: the original North American card is MRD-138, while the 25th Anniversary reprint is MRD-EN138. Konami's beginner guide distinguishes rarity finishes and states that First Edition or Limited Edition cards use a gold security foil while Unlimited cards use silver. The foil helps identify edition, but it is not enough to authenticate the card by itself. [1][2]
What moves the price between versions and grades
AnalysisThe observed PSA records separate the 1st Edition MRD-138 slab from later reprints and other grades. Recent PSA sales show a wide gap between PSA 10 and lower grades, so condition rarity is material. Do not use an Unlimited, 25th Anniversary, or non-PSA sale as a direct comp for a PSA 10 1st Edition copy without marking it as a different variant or grader. [3]
Authenticity checks
Verified factCompare against official references; multiple checks; no destructive tests; copied cert numbers exist. Check the set code, edition text, Ultra Rare finish, card text, back, edges, security foil color, and seller photos against known authentic examples. For slabs, match the cert record to the exact card and still inspect the holder and images because PSA warns that valid cert numbers can be misused on counterfeit inserts. [1][2][5]
Telling the versions apart
| Version | How to identify it |
|---|---|
| MRD-138 1st Edition Ultra Rare | Printed as MRD-138 with Ultra Rare finish, 1st Edition text, and a gold security foil. |
| MRD-138 Unlimited Ultra Rare | Printed as MRD-138 with Ultra Rare finish, no 1st Edition text, and a silver security foil. |
| MRD-EN138 LC01 25th Anniversary Ultra Rare | Modern 2023 reprint with MRD-EN138 set code from Metal Raiders (LC01 25th Anniversary Edition), not the 2002 MRD-138 card. |
