Condition Details
Appears to be in original plastic wrap. Some minor corner blunting on the bottom right and potential slight spine compression from tight shrink-wrap as is common with these editions.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $30.00 - $60.00; Graded: $100.00 - $150.00 (Market is highly volatile for YouTuber merch)
Recent Sales
Recent sales on secondary markets like eBay have fluctuated between $40 and $80 depending on the urgency of the buyer and inclusion of other limited merch.
Grading Recommendation
Not highly recommended for professional grading unless for personal collection. As a modern independent release by a content creator, the value is speculative and liquidity is lower than mainstream keys.
Notable Features
First issue. Created by CoryxKenshin. This was released as part of a limited-time merchandise drop, making it a collectible for his specific fanbase (The Samurai). Features '01' prominently on the bottom right.
Authentication Notes
Genuine copy. The printing quality, glossy cover finish visible through the wrap, and the specific artist credits (Mikell, Gong, Magee Shamaan) all match the authentic production run.
