Zacian VSTAR · Crown Zenith, what to know.
About the Zacian VSTAR card
Numbered 96 of 160 in Crown Zenith, released in January 2023, Zacian VSTAR is a Rare Holo VSTAR, a Basic Metal-type carrying 270 HP.
It evolves from Zacian V, so Zacian VSTAR is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

What is Zacian VSTAR worth?
Zacian VSTAR is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Crown Zenith'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 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 Zacian VSTAR before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Zacian VSTAR lives and dies on its holo surface in grading. The metal foil catches light at angles that hide hairlines in a flat photo, so tilt it under a lamp, then measure the borders, where modern centering is the second-most-common grade cap.
If you are collecting Zacian VSTAR
When you go to buy Zacian VSTAR, settle three things in order: the print variant, the condition, and a comp for that exact combination. A blended average across variants will mislead you on Zacian VSTAR, so price the specific copy in front of you.
