Some of the single cards’ prices could be valued against the bounties of the pirates in the Grand Line.
Obtaining these cards may as well be a treasure you scour, but how large of a treasure could some of these single cards be, just keep searching those best One Piece booster boxes!
Let us take a look at the most valuable One Piece cards of 2023 you can pull.
1. Shanks OP01-120 Parallel Alternate Art Manga ($793)
The most valuable card for the One Piece card game in 2023 is Shanks. This version of Shanks is the Parallel Alternate Art Manga of him.
This is from the Romance Dawn set and the manga panels in the background ensure that this card is different from any other card in the entire set.
Close to $800 at $793 as the median price, Manga Shanks is the only Manga card of the Romance Dawn set. His play cost may be high requiring 9 Don!! cards, but due to Shanks being a Red Character card with 10,000 Power, you can attack with him the turn he is played due to Rush.
Adding to that already formidable strength, Shanks cannot be blocked by any Blocker card with 2000 or less power.
The manga panels look exquisite and differentiate this version of Shanks from its other rarities in the set.
2. Portgas.D.Ace OP02-013 Parallel Alternate Art Manga ($707)
The second most valuable card is Portgas.D.Ace Parallel Alternate Art Manga of him. This like the Manga Shanks card is the only one of its set to have a manga version at $707.
This Manga Ace is of the Paramount War set. The manga panels in the background portray one of the most devastating and heartbreaking scenes of the source material.
A character card that can weaken two of your opponent’s characters by 3000 Power for one turn, and having a leader with Whitebeard Pirates grant Ace Rush to attack in the same turn he is played.
Any fan of this character would love to have this card in their possession with its art solidifying one of the impactful moments in One Piece.
3. Sogeking OP01-122 Parallel Alternate Art Manga ($300)
As the two cards above, Sogeking Parallel Alternate Art Manga is the third most valuable card in 2023. It does have a large gap in value in comparison to Manga Ace, but Sogeking is the sole Manga card of the Pillars of Strength set at $300.
The manga panels in the background showcase Usopp’s transformation, character growth, and resolve into Sogeking alongside his appearance as the King of Snipers.
If you are a fan of Usopp, then this card with its manga background panels is an easy want; especially due to it being the lowest of the three manga cards currently.
4. Roronoa Zora OP01-001 Parallel Alternate Art ($225)
Here we have Rorona Zoro at $225 from the Romance Dawn set. This Zoro’s art is of his recent design after the manga’s timeskip. The other rarities and art of this same card are Zoros’ pre-timeskip designs.
This Zoro is a Leader card providing all of your characters an extra 1000 Power for your turn with the use of 1 Don!!, so it makes it perfect in an aggressive Rush deck.
Adding Rush cards alongside this Leader Zoro can have you dwindling down your opponent’s life fairly quickly while making it more difficult to block your attacks due to Zoro’s Power increase.
5. Trafalgar Law OP1-002 Parallel Alternate Art ($199)
Trafalgar Law at $199 as a Red/Green dual Leader card. The striking close-up of Law with shading details mimics the anime’s intense visual style on the card itself.
While other rarities of this Law are stoic and even static as designs, this card embodies the movement, tact, and strength Law possesses.
6. Nami OP01-019 Parallel Alternate Art ($180)
This Nami at $180 is from the Romance Dawn set with her post-timeskip design. It is one of the more revealing card versions of Nami due to its full art.
An excellent searcher for a Red deck allows you to draw one card when looking at the top five of your deck.
This card would work excellently, if your leader is Roronoa Zoro, so you can search for a Straw Hat with Rush to combo with Zoro’s 1000 Power increase.
7. Charlotte Katakuri OP03-099 Parallel Alternate Art ($172)
This Charlotte Katakuri from the newest set: Pillars of Strength, is a Yellow Leader at $172. The difference between this and the lower rarity of Leader Charlotte is its focus alongside its black/white style with minimal pink.
You can really see Charlotte in an unmovable stance ready to react to anything coming.
8. Monkey.D.Luffy ST01-012 Wanted Poster Alternate Art ($115)
This Monkey.D.Luffy card is reminiscent of the character’s Wanted Posters shows throughout the series at $115. The “Dead or Alive” and “Wanted” being scratched out and tarnished in its font showcase it perfectly as it is portrayed in the series, but in card form.
Though other characters like Kaido and Doflamingo have Wanted Poster cards like this Luffy card, Luffy is the most valuable Wanted Poster card currently.
9. Nami OP3-040 Parallel Alternate Art ($110)
Nami from the recent Pillars of Strength set is valued at $110.This Leader Nami is her pre-timeskip design with her old Arlong Pirates tattoo.
Its design using only the orange colour on specific sections such as her hair, tattoo, and weapon really exemplifies certain sections by drawing you in. With an ability that lets you win, when you have zero cards left–its win condition taps into the despair/hope Nami herself has in trying to save her island.
10. Roronoa Zoro OP1-025 Parallel Alternate Art ($109)
Unlike the previous Leader Zoro card we mentioned in this list, this Roronoa Zora is a Character card at $109. Red decks are known for Rush and this card has Rush, but it also shows it through its design and bloodthirsty nature Zoro has from the stance he makes before lunging into battle.
The other rarity of this card just has Zoro stand there, but this full art design showcases the “demon” moniker other characters have given him.
From the three booster sets of the One Piece card game, these are the 10 most valuable cards of 2023.
If you want to pull for the most valuable cards, then the Manga cards specifically of Romance Dawn and Paramount War are the ones you want to be aiming to pull.
