Mew ex Special Art Rare Pokémon Trading Card (066/059)

This item is a Mew ex Special Art Rare (SAR) Pokémon trading card, specifically card number 066/059 from a Japanese set, likely the 'Pokemon Card 151' set given the card number format and recent release of such artwork for Mew. The card is displayed within a red plastic card holder, which appears to be a basic protector and not a graded slab. The card features a full-art illustration of the mythical Pokémon Mew, depicted in a light blue hue, floating within a shimmering circular aura against a pastel blue and green background with clouds and small, stylized motifs resembling other Pokémon (e.g., Diglett-like mounds, a small Snorlax-like creature, and a snail-like creature). The holographic foil treatment is evident across the card's surface, particularly in the background and the character's aura, contributing to its 'Special Art Rare' designation. The card includes standard Pokémon TCG elements: a 'BASIC' label at the top left, 'Mew ex' as the Pokémon's name, and 'HP 180' and a Psychic-type symbol. It lists an 'Ability: Restart' and an attack called 'Genome Hacking' with a cost of three colorless energy. Below the attack description, a small illustration of a Sleeping Snorlax-like Pokémon and a snail-like Pokémon are visible. The bottom left corner shows the card number '066/059' and a rarity symbol (likely a double star for rare holo or SAR). The bottom right corner contains typical 'Pokémon ex rule' text and copyright information. Observable condition issues include a noticeable diagonal crease or scratch originating from the top left corner of the card's holographic surface, extending downwards towards the center of the card art. This damage is a significant condition issue that would likely impact the card's appraisal value. The card holder itself shows some minor scuffs or wear, but the primary condition concern is the card itself. The card's overall aesthetic aligns with modern Pokémon TCG design, showcasing elaborate full-art illustrations that are highly sought after by collectors.
