Frequently asked

How can I tell if my Crushing Hammer is real?

Crushing Hammer is not on our list of commonly-counterfeited cards, but counterfeits exist across every set. Check the back-light test (real cards have a black inner layer that blocks light; counterfeits glow through), the rosette dot pattern on the back under magnification, font weight and kerning on the card name, and the holofoil pattern if applicable. For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.

What is Crushing Hammer worth?

As of the latest data, the current market reference price for Crushing Hammer is $0.21; there are no active listings on The Game Traders right now. Actual value depends on condition, grading, edition and printing variant — graded high-condition copies (PSA 9–10) trade at a substantial premium over raw copies.

What set is Crushing Hammer from?

Crushing Hammer is from the Pokémon set "Kalos Starter Set" in the XY series, released in 2013.
