22 - Combuskien #9 "Winner," Nintendo Black Star Promos [ITA] 2003

Combuskien #9 "Winner," Nintendo Black Star Promos [ITA] 2003 A highly sought-after memento of the EX-era competitive circuit in Italian, this Combusken 009 (illustrated by Kouki Saitou) features the exclusive “VINCITORE” stamp imprinted in the corner of the illustration. Reserved exclusively for the winners of official tournaments held in 2003, cards featuring the “Vincitore” logo in Italian are characterized by an extremely limited print run, making it particularly difficult to find copies preserved in optimal condition due to the typical fragility of the edges and corners from that period. Graded 9 Mint by AiGrading and protected in a hard, shock-resistant case, this specimen stands out for its outstanding sub-grades, including a 9.5 for the corners (front and back), the front edges, the back surface, and the back alignment. An elite historical piece, a must-have for collectors of competitive promotions and vintage variants. AiGrading Report: Combuskien #9 “Winner”
