Most Expensive One Piece Cards in 2026: Records and Prices
By Owlex · · 7 min read
The most expensive One Piece card ever sold is the 2024 Chinese Year One World Championship 1st Place Monkey D. Luffy trophy card, which sold for $713,700 including buyer's premium at Goldin on August 10, 2026. The most expensive card in a regular set is the Monkey.D.Luffy SP EB04-061, at about $11,650 ungraded as of November 2026.
Those two numbers describe two different markets. The six-figure sales are prize and trophy cards that only a handful of tournament players ever received. The cards most collectors can actually own are special versions printed in normal sets: Manga Rares, SP cards and Super Alternate Arts. Their prices run from about $1,500 to about $11,650 raw, and up to about $31,000 in a PSA 10 slab.
Most lists of expensive One Piece cards mix these two groups, use undated TCGplayer listing prices, or stop at five cards. This guide separates them, dates every price, shows graded and ungraded values side by side, and works out what you would keep after eBay fees.
What is the most expensive One Piece card ever sold?
The record is $713,700 for the 2024 Chinese Year One World Championship 1st Place Monkey D. Luffy trophy card, sold at Goldin's Summer TCG Elite Auction, which ended August 10, 2026. ICv2 describes it as a one-of, gold-embossed card in an 8 by 8 inch display, given to the winner of the World Championship in China.
The record changed hands three times between December 2025 and August 2026, and none of those three cards was ever sold in packs.
| Card | Grade | Price (USD) | Venue | Sale date |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 Chinese Year One World Championship 1st Place Monkey D. Luffy trophy card | Ungraded, in display | $713,700 (incl. buyer's premium) | Goldin | August 10, 2026 |
| 2024 Korean Serialized Top Prize Monkey D. Luffy ST01-001, #001/077 | Ungraded, in original display box | $440,420 | Goldin | May 17, 2026 |
| 2023 Championship World Finals Gold Monkey D. Luffy OP05-119 (English) | CGC Pristine 10 | $315,600 | Alt | December 4, 2025 |
| 2025 Red Manga Monkey D. Luffy OP13-118 | BGS 10 | $104,430 | Not named | February 2, 2026 |
The $315,600 Gold Luffy has an unusual story. According to CGC, Bandai gave gold, silver and bronze Luffy promos to the top three finishers of the 2023 World Finals. The winner received the Japanese gold card, and the English gold card was never handed out at the event. A collector later obtained it and had it graded.
The Red Manga Luffy is the only card in the table that came out of booster packs. It shows how high a pack card can go in a top grade: BGS 10 is one of the highest grades from the grading company Beckett, and that sale was about ten times the card's current raw price.
What are the most expensive One Piece cards from regular sets?
The most expensive set cards in English are special versions of Monkey.D.Luffy, led by the SP EB04-061 at $11,650 ungraded and the SP Gold OP05-119 at $11,100. These are PriceCharting prices, built from recent eBay and TCGplayer sales, checked on November 7, 2026. "Ungraded" means a raw card in near mint condition, and PSA 10 is the top grade from the grading company PSA.
| Card and version | Set | Ungraded (USD) | PSA 10 (USD) | Ungraded sales volume |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monkey.D.Luffy SP, EB04-061 | The World's Strongest Warriors (OP-17) | $11,650.00 | $18,000.00 | 2 per week |
| Monkey.D.Luffy SP Gold, OP05-119 | A Fist of Divine Speed (OP-11) | $11,100.00 | $16,336.66 | 1 per week |
| Monkey.D.Luffy Red Manga, OP13-118 | Carrying on His Will (OP-13) | $10,315.84 | $31,396.67 | 2 per month |
| Monkey.D.Luffy Manga, OP05-119 | Awakening of the New Era (OP-05) | $8,405.00 | $15,153.50 | 1 per week |
| Gol.D.Roger Manga, OP09-118 | Emperors in the New World (OP-09) | $5,801.48 | $15,250.13 | 2 per month |
| Monkey.D.Luffy SP Silver, OP05-119 | A Fist of Divine Speed (OP-11) | $5,109.44 | $10,850.50 | 2 per month |
| Rocks.D.Xebec Super Alternate Art, OP17-118 | The World's Strongest Warriors (OP-17) | $4,847.14 | $7,687.28 | 2 per week |
| Roronoa Zoro Manga, OP06-118 | Wings of the Captain (OP-06) | $2,678.75 | $4,251.29 | 1 per week |
| Monkey.D.Luffy Manga, OP13-118 | Carrying on His Will (OP-13) | $2,000.00 | $3,532.70 | 1 per week |
| Nami Manga, OP01-016 | Listed under Romance Dawn | $1,970.00 | $2,973.17 | 1 per week |
| Shanks Manga, OP01-120 | Romance Dawn (OP-01) | $1,529.77 | $4,475.50 | 2 per month |
Six of the eleven cards are Monkey.D.Luffy. Character popularity drives these prices more than tournament play does.
Treat thinly traded cards with care. A price built on two sales a month can move by thousands of dollars on the next sale. The Red Manga Luffy's recent raw sales on PriceCharting ranged from $7,500 to $14,000 within October 2026 alone.
Why are Manga Rare and SP One Piece cards worth so much?
They are the scarcest versions of popular characters. A Manga Rare is a version of a card with black-and-white artwork drawn to look like panels from the One Piece manga. An SP (Special) card is a reprint of a card with new art and an "SP" label. A Super Alternate Art, also called a Super Parallel, is the top chase version in recent sets.
The same card number can exist in several versions with very different prices. Monkey.D.Luffy OP13-118 is a clear example. The English Manga version sells for $2,000.00 ungraded and the Red Manga version for $10,315.84, about 5.2 times as much, as of November 2026. Searching by name and number alone can put you thousands of dollars off.
Prize and serial-numbered promos are scarcer still. SNKRDUNK's list of serial-numbered One Piece promos counts 500 copies of the serialized Luffy Leader ST01-001, given as a Flagship Battle and Championship prize, and 1,200 copies each of serialized Luffy OP07-109 and Nami OP08-106 from giveaway campaigns.
Are Japanese One Piece cards worth more than English ones?
Not in the examples checked here. The Japanese Red Manga Luffy OP13-118 sells for $7,798.90 ungraded, about 76% of the English card's $10,315.84, as of November 2026.
The gap is wider in top grade. The Japanese card's PSA 10 price is $11,610.65, about 37% of the English PSA 10 price of $31,396.67. Japanese and English cards are separate products, so always check the price for the language you have. Our guide to what your One Piece card is worth covers this with more examples.
Is it worth grading an expensive One Piece card?
Only if it is likely to get a 10. A PSA 10 adds roughly 60% to 200% to the raw value of the cards above, but a 9 can be worth less than the raw card. Grading means a company such as PSA inspects the card, gives it a grade from 1 to 10 and seals it in a plastic case called a slab.
| Card | Ungraded (USD) | Grade 9 (USD) | PSA 10 (USD) | Grade 9 vs raw (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monkey.D.Luffy Red Manga, OP13-118 | $10,315.84 | $18,372.68 | $31,396.67 | +$8,056.84 |
| Monkey.D.Luffy Manga, OP05-119 | $8,405.00 | $7,850.50 | $15,153.50 | -$554.50 |
| Roronoa Zoro Manga, OP06-118 | $2,678.75 | $2,009.50 | $4,251.29 | -$669.25 |
| Shanks Manga, OP01-120 | $1,529.77 | $1,001.45 | $4,475.50 | -$528.32 |
Prices are from PriceCharting as of November 2026, before grading fees and shipping.
For three of the four cards, a 9 is worth $500 to $700 less than the raw card. Buyers pay a premium for a clean raw copy that might still grade 10, and a 9 removes that chance. The Red Manga Luffy is the exception, where even a 9 adds about $8,000.
A simple rule: grade an expensive One Piece card only if it looks flawless under bright light, graded copies of that exact version sell at least once a month, and you would still be content if it came back a 9. For tiers and wait times, see our guide to PSA grading cost.
How much would you keep if you sold one on eBay?
About 87% to 90% of the sale price after eBay fees. For collectible card games, eBay charges sellers without a Store 13.25% of the sale up to $7,500, 2.35% on the portion over $7,500, and a $0.40 per-order fee on orders over $10, as of November 2026.
| Card | Sale price (USD) | eBay fees (USD) | You keep (USD) | Kept (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monkey.D.Luffy Red Manga, OP13-118 | $10,315.84 | $1,060.32 | $9,255.52 | 89.7% |
| Gol.D.Roger Manga, OP09-118 | $5,801.48 | $769.10 | $5,032.38 | 86.7% |
| Roronoa Zoro Manga, OP06-118 | $2,678.75 | $355.33 | $2,323.42 | 86.7% |
| Shanks Manga, OP01-120 | $1,529.77 | $203.09 | $1,326.68 | 86.7% |
Here is the Red Manga Luffy worked through. 13.25% of the first $7,500 is $993.75. The remaining $2,815.84 is charged at 2.35%, which is $66.17. Add the $0.40 order fee and the total is $1,060.32, leaving $9,255.52 before shipping and insurance. Cards above $7,500 keep a higher share because of the lower rate on the top portion.

How do you check if your One Piece card is one of the valuable ones?
Find the card number and the exact version, then look up recent sold prices for that version. The number alone is not enough, because one number can cover several versions.
- Read the card number in the bottom corner, for example OP13-118. The letters and first digits are the set; the last digits are the card.
- Identify the version. Look for black-and-white manga panel art, an "SP" label, or alternate art. Compare your card with the photos on the PriceCharting or TCGplayer listing for each version.
- Check the language. Japanese and English versions have separate prices.
- Look up sold prices, not asking prices, on PriceCharting or eBay's sold listings, and note how many sales the price is based on.
- Inspect condition under bright light before deciding to sell raw or grade.
