Umbreon Card Value: Moonbreon, Gold Star and Neo Discovery

Most Umbreon cards sell for $1-20. The Moonbreon 215/203 brings about $2,000-2,500 raw and $3,600-4,600 in PSA 10; a Gold Star PSA 10 sold for about $168,000 in 2026.

Updated October 17, 2026

Most Umbreon cards are worth $1-20, because Umbreon has appeared on hundreds of ordinary holos, reverse holos and V and ex cards since 2000. A handful are worth a great deal. The Umbreon VMAX alternate art 215/203 from Evolving Skies, called Moonbreon by collectors, sells for about $2,000-2,500 raw in near mint, about $1,950-2,100 in PSA 9 and about $3,600-4,600 in PSA 10 as of October 2026. The 2007 Gold Star Umbreon from POP Series 5 sold for $104,920 in PSA 10 at Goldin in April 2026 and about $168,000 at Fanatics Collect in June 2026, and the 2001 Neo Discovery holo sells for roughly $2,000-2,800 in PSA 9 unlimited and far more in first edition.

The Umbreon market rose sharply in 2025 and 2026, which is why old price lists are so far off. The same rise makes it more important to price from recent sales of your exact card, version and grade, not from a headline.

How to identify and value an Umbreon card, step by step

  1. Read the number at the bottom. Modern cards show a number like 215/203 at the bottom left or right, with a set symbol beside it. Older cards print the number at the bottom right of the text box, such as 13/75. A first number higher than the second, like 215/203, means a secret rare, which is where most of the value sits.
  2. Find the set symbol. A small set symbol sits beside the number on modern cards and at the bottom right of the art on older ones. Match it against a set list for Evolving Skies (2021), Neo Discovery (2001), POP Series 5 (2007), Celebrations (2021) or Prismatic Evolutions (2025), the sets that hold the valuable Umbreons.
  3. Look at the art. The Moonbreon is an alternate art card: Umbreon rests on a rooftop at night with a full moon behind it, and the illustration fills the whole card. The regular Umbreon VMAX from the same set, 95/203, shows a standard silver frame and sells for a few dollars to about $15.
  4. Check for a star after the name. A Gold Star card has a small star symbol right after the Pokemon name. The 2007 Umbreon Gold Star is numbered 17/17. A 2021 Celebrations Classic Collection reprint of the same card exists, marked with the small 25th anniversary logo on the art, and sells for a fraction of the original.
  5. On Neo era cards, check for the First Edition stamp. It is a small black circle reading Edition 1 on the left edge just below the art. No stamp means unlimited. The holo Umbreon is 13/75; a non-holo Umbreon 32/75 is from the same set and is worth much less.
  6. Judge condition honestly. Look at the four corners, the edges, the surface under a single light and the centering of the borders. On the Moonbreon, edge whitening on the back and fine scratches on the textured front decide whether a card can reach PSA 10.
  7. Price from sold results for the exact card and grade. Use eBay sold listings, Misprint, PriceCharting and PSA auction prices. Note the date, because Umbreon prices have changed fast.

The PSA 10 Moonbreon is a high-population card, with more than 20,000 copies graded 10, which is why a PSA 10 sells for less than twice a raw near mint copy. The Gold Star and the first edition Neo card are the opposite: only a small number of 10s exist, and a single sale can move the price by tens of thousands of dollars. The Gold Star went from $104,920 in April 2026 to about $168,000 in June 2026; with so few sales, treat the top result as the edge of a thin market, not a typical price.

Condition and what changes the price

Factor Effect
Clean near mint, sharp corners, centered The raw prices above
Light play: slight edge whitening, faint scratches About 60-75 percent of near mint on the Moonbreon
Moderate play: visible whitening, a soft corner About 50-60 percent
Crease or bend About 20-40 percent, often less
Off-center front borders, worse than about 60/40 Rules out a PSA 10 on most cards
Print lines or a factory roller mark A deduction, even straight from the pack
PSA 10 versus PSA 9 About 1.8 to 2 times on the Moonbreon; far more on vintage
First edition stamp on Neo Discovery Roughly two to five times the unlimited price, grade for grade
Japanese version of the same card Usually less than English, with exceptions

Japanese Umbreon cards deserve a note. The Japanese Moonbreon, from the Eevee Heroes set, has its own market, and Japanese cards are numbered differently. Our guide to Japanese Pokemon cards covers how to read them.

A worked example

Say you find a binder from 2021 with an Umbreon card that shows Umbreon on a rooftop under a full moon, numbered 215/203. It is the Moonbreon. Under a desk lamp, the front surface is clean and the corners are sharp, but the back shows light white flecks on two edges. That is a light play to near mint card. A fair raw value is roughly $1,500-2,200, depending on how a buyer reads those edges.

Whether to grade it is a real question. If it came back a PSA 9, it would be worth about $2,000; a PSA 10 about $3,600-4,600; a PSA 8 noticeably less than raw near mint. With visible back edge wear, a 10 is unlikely, so selling raw with honest photos of the back is often the better choice. Our guide to whether grading Pokemon cards is worth it runs the same math.

Fakes and reprints

The Moonbreon and the Gold Star are among the most faked modern and vintage Pokemon cards. Real Moonbreons have a fine textured surface you can feel and see at an angle; fakes are often smooth and glossy, with colors too saturated and text slightly blurry. Fake Gold Stars are common, and the Celebrations reprint is often listed as an original by mistake: the reprint carries the 25th anniversary logo. Our guide to spotting a fake Pokemon card covers the light test, the font and the card stock.

Common mistakes

How WorthPic reads Umbreon photos

WorthPic runs on the newest and most capable AI model available, tuned for exactly this kind of identification. From a clear photo of the front it reads the card number, set symbol, art style, rarity markings, any star after the name, any First Edition stamp and any anniversary logo, which together separate a $10 holo from a Moonbreon, a reprint from a Gold Star and an unlimited Neo card from a first edition. It then places the card against recent sales for that exact card and condition and gives an honest value range. What it cannot know from a photo is the fine surface condition that decides a PSA 10, small back edge wear that the photo does not show, or whether a high-value card is a skilled counterfeit. It identifies and estimates. It does not authenticate, grade or appraise. For any Umbreon worth a few hundred dollars or more, a grading service such as PSA, BGS or CGC settles authenticity and grade.

What to photograph

When to get it looked at in person

Ordinary Umbreon cards do not need an expert; a sold-listing search for the exact number takes a minute, and our guide to checking Pokemon card value walks through the method. A Moonbreon, an Umbreon V alt art in strong condition, a Prismatic Evolutions special illustration rare, a Neo Discovery holo or any Gold Star is worth more care. For those, a grading service, PSA, BGS or CGC, is what buyers trust, and for a Gold Star or a first edition Neo card in high grade, a major auction house such as Goldin, Fanatics Collect or Heritage reaches the buyers who pay the most. The most valuable Pokemon cards guide shows where Umbreon sits among the rest.

Questions people ask

How much is the Moonbreon worth?

The Umbreon VMAX alternate art 215/203 from Evolving Skies sells for about $2,000-2,500 raw near mint, about $1,950-2,100 in PSA 9 and about $3,600-4,600 in PSA 10 as of October 2026.

What is the rarest Umbreon card?

Among English cards, the 2007 Gold Star Umbreon from POP Series 5 and the first edition Neo Discovery holo in high grade are the scarcest and most valuable. A PSA 10 Gold Star sold for about $168,000 at Fanatics Collect in June 2026, after a $104,920 sale at Goldin in April.

Is my Gold Star Umbreon real or a reprint?

Look for the small 25th anniversary logo on the art. If it is there, it is the 2021 Celebrations reprint, worth roughly $90-100 raw. The 2007 original has no anniversary logo and a POP Series 5 set symbol.

How much is a Neo Discovery Umbreon worth?

The unlimited holo 13/75 sells for roughly $300-600 raw and $2,000-2,800 in PSA 9. A first edition copy is worth several times more, roughly $7,500-15,000 in PSA 9.

Why are Umbreon cards so expensive?

Umbreon is one of the most popular Pokemon among adult collectors, and its best cards have strong art. The demand is concentrated on a few cards; ordinary Umbreon cards are still $1-20.

Should I grade my Umbreon VMAX alt art?

Only if the front surface, corners and back edges are clean under a bright light. A PSA 10 adds about $1,500-2,000 over raw, but a PSA 8 sells for less than a clean raw copy.
