What are the 10 Rarest Yu-Gi-Oh Cards in the World?

Answer 1

It is hard to say which cards are the most rarest, as you have to keep in mind that the cards have been printed off many times each.

Though, it is fairly safe to assume that the three Egyptian Gods are some of the rarest. Many fakes of them are available on the internet.

The Seal of Orichalcos is also a real card, with only 15 copies printed off in the world. They are all owned by those at Upper Deck Entertainment.

Improvised Answer by Tribulationq: The rarest official yugioh card is Tyler The Great Warrior.It was made for a little boy who was suffering a deadly disease courtesy of the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

There is only ONE copy in the world and Tyler (the little boy with the disease)owns it.

^ Seal of Orichalcos should be excluded. It is not a *real* card. What is a 'real' card? A real one is a card sanctioned by Konami. Tyler is a unique card, and because Konami allowed it to be printed, it's a real Yu-Gi-Oh game card. The Seals used in that event are not sanctioned Konami cards, they were just made by some UDE employees as a special event. The cards do not belong to any valid set, and while they certainly have a novelty value, they are simply not 'real' cards. Isn't it also odd how unique and two-of cards have plenty of photographs, but no one can ever provide a photograph of those Seals or show what one looked like?

God cards absolutely are nowhere near the rarest cards. There must have been thousands of copies of Worldwide Edition made, each with three God cards, and that's not including the thousands of Ra cards in Dawn of Destiny, Obelisks in Shonen Jump's subscriber gift offer, and Slifers in the Movie Animanga.

So a more definitive list would be,

1 - Tyler. Only one of him.

2+ - The Worlds 1st and 2nd place prizecards. There are only two each of these.

Then the Worlds 3rd to 8th place prizecards. There are only six of each.

Next is Shonen Jump/Pharaoh's Tour prizecards, with a run of under 100 each.

Then certain other limited promotional cards, like Kanan the Swordmistress, Firewing Pegasus and the 'common' version EP1-EN000 - Card of Sanctity.

I'd like to mention Exodia, dispite the many copys (exodia necross, exxod, old and new editions etc.). I have yet to collect all the peices, yet at one time I did own both legs, the right arm, and head of the original exodia.

Exodia cannot even come close, it's had so many reprints. Consider the latest set, The Shining Darkness. Every single Ultra and Secret rare in that set is 'rarer' than Exodia, and the same is true for many sets going back.
