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 Stardust Dragon
Stardust Dragon TDGS-EN040 is the debut-set English Synchro Dragon from The Duelist Genesis, with a Ghost Rare version collectors track closely. Searchers often need help separating Ghost Rare, Ultimate Rare, Ultra Rare, 1st Edition, and Unlimited copies.
Why this card matters
Verified factKonami's database lists Stardust Dragon in The Duelist Genesis as TDGS-EN040 with Ultra Rare, Ultimate Rare, and Ghost Rare entries dated September 2, 2008. The Ghost Rare is the version documented in the opened PSA and Fanatics sale records. Collectors search it because Stardust Dragon is a signature 5D's-era monster and because condition-sensitive Ghost Rare surfaces make grade-specific comps especially important. [1][2][3]
Identifying the exact version
AnalysisFirst confirm TDGS-EN040 and the Ghost Rare treatment. Then determine edition: a 1st Edition card should show printed 1st Edition text and the correct security foil, while Unlimited lacks the 1st Edition mark. The opened PSA cert page identifies TDGS-Ghost Rare but does not state 1st Edition or Unlimited in the text available to this research, so those sales are not assigned to either edition. [1][2][3]
What moves the price between versions and grades
Verified factThe opened PSA cert page records a PSA 10 Ghost Rare sale at $8,750 on June 19, 2026 through eBay Best Offer, while an opened Fanatics Collect auction records $2,520 with buyer's premium on September 15, 2025. Both are PSA 10 Ghost Rare records, but edition uncertainty remains. Raw, PSA 9, Ultimate Rare, and Ultra Rare copies need their own opened comps. [2][3]
Authenticity checks
AnalysisCompare against official references; use multiple checks; avoid destructive tests; copied cert numbers exist. For TDGS-EN040 Ghost Rare, inspect the set code, foil treatment, edition text, security foil, surface, scratches, and slab cert. Ghost Rare surfaces can show defects that are hard to see straight-on, so angled-light photos matter even when the PSA number is attractive. [1][2][3]
Telling the versions apart
| Version | How to identify it |
|---|---|
| TDGS-EN040 1st Edition Ghost Rare | TDGS-EN040, Ghost Rare treatment, English language, and printed 1st Edition text with gold security foil. |
| TDGS-EN040 Unlimited Ghost Rare | TDGS-EN040, Ghost Rare treatment, English language, no 1st Edition text, and Unlimited-style security foil. |
| TDGS-EN040 Ghost Rare, edition not stated by sale source | Use only when the opened sale source identifies TDGS-EN040 Ghost Rare but does not prove 1st Edition or Unlimited. |
