About this data

TCGAI Scores are AI estimates made from photos, not official grades, and third-party grades may differ. The figures count every real grading of the set on TCGAI.PRO (tests excluded), extracted on 2026-10-26; only public certificates are listed. A set needs at least 30 graded cards to have a page, and set names are the ones identified at grading time. How the score is produced: methodology.
