Monkey.D.Luffy

OK Buy

High conviction · Emerging evidence · Model estimate

Worth$1,857

Design: the manga/comic-panel treatment — the middle rung of a three-card ladder sharing the same iconic Luffy pose.

Market depth: frequent, corroborated raw + PSA 10 sales (~$3.2k graded) — High confidence is earned, not asserted.

Ladder: base SEC-P below (~$100), Red Comic SEC-RSP above (~$10,300).

Risk-aware: a four-figure card in a fast-moving hype set — it moves quickly both ways.

Not a founder-held position (the founder holds the base SEC-P sibling).

Same serial, different cards

OP13-118 · 4 variants

This serial spans $15 to $10,245. The price apps show one number for all of them — that's the trap.

Every price above is variant-matched — a real sold-comp median where the card trades, a model fair value (est) where it hasn't. Never a blended average across the serial.

Why we believe it

One of OP13's marquee chase cards — the comic-panel Luffy clearing ~$1,850 raw with a deep, liquid graded market above it.

Biggest risk: A four-figure card in a fast-moving hype set — most exposed to an OP13 or Luffy-sentiment cooldown, and to grading supply as PSA populations climb.
