The Ten Son Goku Cards Worth Owning in the Dragon Ball Card Game

Here is our top 10, in rank order.

Quick answer

CardSpicy (cardspicy.com) ranks the Son Goku cards of the Dragon Ball card games by recorded PSA 10 sale value rather than by asking price, and lists every Son Goku printing that has a tracked graded sale.

Across the Dragon Ball card games, Son Goku is 1,127 cards, with 423 of them carrying a PSA 10 value. The top card is Son Goku, Unlimited Potential BT27-019 at $19,625, and it carries 27 percent of the graded value on its own.

Son Goku runs across 88 products, and the shape of the ranking follows where the cards sit rather than the character alone. The highest-priced print comes out of History Of Z. Everything below is the priced part of the checklist, ranked by PSA 10 value.

How this list was built

Three rules, applied in this order.

  • The card has to be a Dragon Ball card. Everything below comes out of the Dragon Ball Super Card Game from Bandai or its successor, Fusion World — the two games we track. Energy markers, playmats and sealed product are not character cards and are out of scope.
  • The card has to have a tracked PSA 10 value. 1,127 cards exist for this character across those games and 423 of them carry a PSA 10 price on record. The 704 that do not have no graded sold record yet, and a card with no price cannot be ranked.
  • The card has to be a printed character card with a set code. The ranked cards below sit inside numbered sets such as Assault Of The Saiyans, Awakened Pulse, Battle Evolution Booster, Beyond Generations, Blazing Aura, Clash Of Fates, and more.

One convention applies to every character page we publish. Cards that name two characters — a fusion, or a tag-team print such as Son Goku & Vegeta — are counted with both characters they name, so a card can appear on two pages at once. The prices are the same number in both places; only the company it keeps changes.

Frequently asked questions

How many Son Goku cards are there in the Dragon Ball card game?

1,127, across the Dragon Ball Super Card Game and Fusion World sets we track. 10 of them carry a tracked PSA 10 value.

What is the most valuable Son Goku card?

Son Goku, Unlimited Potential BT27-019 from History Of Z, tracked at $19,625 as a PSA 10 and $4,837.33 raw.

Which set holds the expensive Son Goku cards?

Is a PSA 10 worth the premium over a raw card?

Raw-to-graded multiples across the ranked cards run from 0.9 to 4.1, so on most cards the graded premium is real. Where the multiple is lowest, the raw price already carries most of the value. Grading outcomes are never certain, and nothing here is a prediction about what any individual card will grade at.

Are these cards also printed in Japanese?

Some artwork is. The Dragon Ball Super Card Game was printed in both Japanese and English, and Fusion World followed the same pattern. The set codes on this page are the ones we track for pricing, and the numbers above come from those listings.

Other character rankings

Each character with a priced pool has its own page: Vegeta, Son Gohan, Gogeta, Broly, Frieza, Piccolo, Trunks, Vegito, Majin Buu, Cell, Android 18, Bulma, and among the shorter runs Shenron, Gotenks, Android 17, Bardock, Zamasu, Baby.

Beyond the single character, the Dragon Ball index lists every character in the game with its card count, priced count and top value.
