One of the rarest and most coveted Pokemon cards in existence, the Tamamushi University Magikarp was a prize card that was given out as part of the Tamamushi University Hyper Test. The test was published in Shogakukan magazines, only allowing hopeful participants a limited window of time to submit it for review. Those that made the cut were invited to a two-day event in Osaka where they were separated into three age groups and then subdivided into various gyms, where only the top players in each group qualified for the second day of the event. On the second day, these top players battled it out against each other, and only those who won at least one battle received this card as their prize. Featuring the iconic artwork of legendary Pokemon artist Ken Sugimori, this is one of the most recognizable Japanese cards ever created, as the artwork ultimately never did see an English release. One of less than 100 graded by PSA's graders to date, only fourteen of which have earned PSA’s gem mint designation, this represents a fantastic addition to any portfolio or collection.
