A 1999 Pokémon Base Unlimited #4 Charizard holographic card graded BGS 9.5 led the CertifiedLink auction that ended on August 10, 2026, selling for $7,222 after 39 bids. Starting at just $1, the high-grade Charizard climbed into four figures and finished comfortably ahead of the rest of the auction. The card remains one of the most recognizable issues from the original Pokémon Base Set and continues to be a centerpiece for collectors of high-grade vintage Pokémon.
A 1955 Topps #123 Sandy Koufax rookie card graded PSA 4.5 finished second at $2,558 after 44 bids. The Hall of Fame pitcher’s rookie card is one of the key cards in the 1955 Topps set, and the mid-grade example drew sustained bidding from its $1 opening price through the auction’s close.
A 1932 $10 Indian Head gold coin graded MS-60 took the third position at $2,110, showing the breadth of the auction beyond traditional cards. Another important baseball rookie followed closely, as a 1955 Topps #164 Roberto Clemente rookie graded PSA 1.5 sold for $1,958 after 29 bids.
Magic: The Gathering also had a strong presence among the leading lots. A 1993 Arabian Nights Bazaar of Baghdad graded BGS 7.5 reached $1,650, while a Library of Alexandria graded CGC 7 later sold for $1,025. A 1993 Unlimited Time Vault PSA 7 also made the Top 10.
