The Skarmory 27/165 in context
Why collectors care
Skarmory is one of Expedition's standout Steel-type inclusions and a popular Generation II character. Its metallic identity fits the reflective e-Reader-era finish particularly well.
How to identify it
Expedition Base Set 27/165, Skarmory. Confirm the regular numbered holo and 27/165 mark; the reverse-holo card with the same number is a different finish.
Common mistakes
Metallic artwork can make reverse holo look convincing in scans. Verify foil in the illustration and confirm the exact Expedition number before comparing copies.
Grade considerations
The metallic artwork makes scratches, silvering and print lines obvious. Check centering and the lower strip for whitening, plus corners for factory chipping.
