About the set
Crown Zenith is a Pokémon set released in January 2023 as the send-off for the Sword & Shield line. It is remembered for its Galarian Gallery subset. The set is long out of print, so sealed product now surfaces as special collections and tins rather than boxes.
Collectors open Crown Zenith for cards such as Pikachu, a Secret Rare with a market price of $48.75, and Elesa's Sparkle, an Ultra Rare at $15.24. Rayquaza VMAX appears as an Ultra Rare at $14.80 and as a Holo Rare VMAX at $11.70. Radiant Charizard, a Radiant Rare, sits at $12.87, and Snorlax, a Rare, at $12.49.
The Elite Trainer Box holds 9 booster packs plus a full-art promo card, 65 card sleeves, energy cards, dice, condition markers and a storage box. Special Collections include promo cards, an oversized card and 5 booster packs, while tins and collection boxes carry 4–8 packs with the same packs as loose retail. The Elite Trainer Box suits a collector who wants sleeves, dice and storage, while tins and collection boxes suit someone mainly opening packs.
