Charizard is a classic collection Pokemon card from Pokemon Celebrations: Classic Collection, card 4 of 25, released October 8, 2021 in the Sword & Shield series. The illustration is by Mitsuhiro Arita.
Celebrations: Classic Collection reprinted Base Set Charizard with a 25th-anniversary gold stamp in 2021. It is a distinct printing from the 1999 card — same art, modern foil, stamped — and became the accessible anniversary version of the hobby's flagship image.
VALUE
What is Charizard #4 from Celebrations: Classic Collection worth?
Two different numbers answer this, and they are not interchangeable. Raw/ungraded: a loose, ungraded copy of Charizard #4 (Celebrations: Classic Collection) carries a market reference of $167.65 USD for the holofoil printing (TCGplayer market price, as of 2026-09-11). Graded slabs: a graded example is priced per grading company and per grade and can sit far above that raw figure - documented public sales on file for this card run from $420.00 (PSA 10, 2026-09-06) to $475.00 (PSA 10, 2026-09-03), each listed with its source below. Both are references, not offers. The graded copy in our machine carries a Rip Station estimated slab value of $465.00 (PSA 9).
