Magmortar · Crown Zenith Galarian Gallery, what to know.
About the Magmortar card
Numbered GG03 of 70 in Crown Zenith Galarian Gallery, released in January 2023, Magmortar is a Trainer Gallery Rare Holo, a Stage 1 Fire-type carrying 140 HP.
It evolves from Magmar, so Magmortar is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Printed on the card, the Magmortar Pokédex entry reads: "When Magmortar inhales deeply, the fire burning in its belly intensifies, rising in temperature to over 3,600 degrees Fahrenheit."
What is Magmortar worth?
Magmortar is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Crown Zenith Galarian Gallery's value. The rarity tier decides most of it, since the same card prints at several tiers with very different prices. In top-grade 1st Edition, Crown Zenith Galarian Gallery holos range from the mid hundreds for the lesser cards up to the set's marquee chase; raw and Unlimited copies trade for a fraction of that. The live market price above shows the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Magmortar before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Expect the holo window to set the grade on Magmortar. Print misregistration and fine scratches in the fire foil are the usual reasons a copy lands at a 9, and edge whitening against the frame is the next thing a grader notes.
If you are collecting Magmortar
