Pokemon Trading Cards
Pokemon cards were all the rage in the early 2000’s, when children traded different Pokemon for each other, fought fictitious battles, and typically spent thousands of their parent’s earnings on trying to get their hands on some of the rare collectibles in the series. Although some holographic cards in mind condition have fetched up to $2500 at public auction, there are literally a handful that will make this kind of money. The rest, as they say, is from a time long passed.
