The Giratina VSTAR (Gold) 212/196 in context
Why collectors care
The gold Giratina VSTAR is the highest-numbered card in Lost Origin and the gold hyper-rare counterpart to the set's celebrated Giratina V alternate art. Giratina was the defining chase character of the set.
How to identify it
Number 212/196 from Lost Origin (2022). The catalog also holds the Giratina V alternate art at 186/196 -- a different and generally more valuable card from the same set.
Common mistakes
Assuming the gold card is the set's top chase. For Lost Origin the alternate art at 186/196 generally leads; confirm which Giratina a listing holds.
Grade considerations
Gold-foil cards show scratches and edge wear particularly clearly, and centering on gold borders is strictly judged.
