First things first:
- The Jolina Gisèle Pokémon collection is one of the most valuable in the world and comprises over 60,000 cards and products, most of them in perfect PSA 10 condition.
- The collection contains extremely rare cards such as Illustrator Pikachu, Gold Stars and numerous Charizard variants from every era.
- The collection covers virtually every era: from Base Set (First Edition, Shadowless, Unlimited) through to the EX era, and that in English and in Japanese.
- Alongside single cards there are also complete sets and still-sealed products such as boosters, displays and Art Sets, often held several times over.
The incredible scale of the most valuable Pokémon card collection
What immediately captivated us when visiting the Jolina Gisèle collection was the sheer scale of this incredible collection. The most valuable collection in Switzerland comprises more than 60,000 cards and products.
But it is not only the size that impresses, above all it is the quality found here, which definitely catapults the collection into the top league. Almost every card boasts a PSA grading of 10, the highest degree of perfection a card can receive. This flawless condition has helped the Jolina Gisèle collection to its immense increase in value.
Tip: PSA Grading is awarded by the company Professional Sports Authenticator after a card has been carefully checked for condition, centring of the print, colour and surface. Grading 10 stands for perfect condition.
In the following sections we will present the pieces that make this collection so special. From graded single cards through to PSA slabs on still-sealed packs, which were likewise awarded PSA Grading 10.
On top of that comes the enormous breadth this collection covers. Because you will find English as well as Japanese cards, First Edition or Unlimited, Shadowless or No Rarity, hardly imaginable.
Whether you are a passionate collector or work in the Pokémon business yourself, here you definitely enter Pokémon heaven. A monument to the rich history of Pokémon cards. Let's now dive straight into the most valuable collection.
A small foretaste to begin with: the collection holds the rare Illustrator Pikachu. Not just once, but twice. Among them even the copy that was the very first one ever to be graded.

The most valuable Pokémon cards in detail
Gold Stars in English and Japanese
One of my absolute highlights are the Gold Stars. We have Gold Stars in both English and Japanese, both times with PSA 10. The image below shows only a small part of the overall huge collection of Gold Stars. I have personally never seen anything like it.

University Magikarp and Snap promos
Another breathtaking section of the collection: the University Magikarp Tamamushi University Prize. I do not know whether it can be found anywhere else in the world. A full 5 times with PSA 10 grading, that probably speaks for itself.

You will also find cards that I have in my personal collection. These include cards such as Lugia PSA 10 from Aquapolis or Charizard Holo PSA 10 from various eras, ranging from the Base Edition to the EX era, in English as in Japanese, First Edition, Unlimited and Shadowless, in this collection really everything is covered.
But it gets even crazier! There is also a complete collection of the Snap promo cards. And as you may know, only about 20 copies per motif were produced.
The image below shows that even a Gyarados PSA 10 is among them. Until now I had only ever seen screenshots of the Snap promos, and with the Jolina Gisèle collection I saw them live for the first time.

Trophy Cards at a glance
A very exciting section of the collection are the Trophy Cards, which also cover an enormous range. Every conceivable Trophy Card can really be seen here. These include Tropical Battle and Kangaskhan.

Another highlight that cannot be found a second time is the original hand-drawn Pikachu by Mitsuhiro Arita, including the Trophy Cards that are based on this original.
For passionate collectors like me this is a unique opportunity to experience this piece of Pokémon history in the collection.

The Legendary Collection at a glance
The amazement does not stop. The collection includes a complete Legendary Collection Reverse Holos with PSA 10 grading.
That includes Charizard, and not just once but twice. On top of that come complete Crystal sets, in Japanese and English, as Reverse Holo and Holo.
And it goes deeper still: Base Set First Edition PSA 10 in almost every language, Shadowless sets, even the complete Japanese “No Rarity” set in PSA 10, something I had never seen in real life before.
From Team Rocket through Fossil and Jungle to Neo Genesis and Neo Discovery, everything complete, often several times over, in English and Japanese, including all the Shining cards.
Arrived in Pokémon heaven
Honestly, I would describe this place as Pokémon heaven. We have a huge Pikachu collection with Poncho cards as well as the iconic Mario and Luigi collaboration.
On top of that come almost complete Pikachu promo sets, more trophy cards and special Masaki promos, all of course again in PSA 10.
And with the Gold Stars it continues: Japanese sets, several copies, including Rayquaza, one of my absolute favourites. Holding a Rayquaza PSA 10 in my hands is a dream come true for me as a collector.
The impression keeps growing that you are in a kind of treasure chamber here: complete sets from the most varied eras, Box Toppers from the Expedition series, countless sealed products from the EX era, including displays and booster packs in different versions.
Even the collector's own special favourite cards, such as a particularly cute Minccino card with a “Cracked Ice” holo effect, are part of this gigantic collection.
Beyond that, legendary Pokémon are extensively represented, for example the legendary bird and dog trios, each in complete sets and in perfect condition. There are also further complete collections from the EX era as well as Crystal cards in all versions, in English as well as Japanese, from Reverse Holo to Holo.
