Team Rocket Meowth Appraisal

Meowth Pokémon Card - Team Rocket Set (62/82)

This is a vintage Pokémon Trading Card Game card featuring the character Meowth. The card is part of the 'Team Rocket' expansion set, released in 2000 by Wizards of the Coast. It displays the classic yellow border design with a non-holographic art box showing Meowth against a background of sparkling coins. Key elements include the 'R' symbol on the middle right, indicating the Team Rocket set, and the numbering 62/82 at the bottom right. The card lists Meowth as a 'Basic Pokémon' with 40 HP and the 'Coin Hurl' attack. It is constructed from standard cardstock with a matte finish on the text area and a slightly glossier finish on the illustration. In terms of condition, based on the photograph, the card is stored in a clear plastic binder sleeve. There is visible whitening and minor corner wear on the top left and bottom right corners, suggesting it is in 'Lightly Played' to 'Good' condition rather than 'Near Mint.' No major creases or water damage are immediately apparent. The bottom copyright line indicates the release years 1999-2000, consistent with original print runs. The centering appears slightly heavy toward the left margin.
