About The Arkenstone
This page covers the borderless printing of The Arkenstone (234), a Legendary Artifact // Sorcery — Adventure from The Hobbit (HOB). It is printed at Mythic Rare rarity. It is legal in Standard, Pioneer, Modern and Legacy and 6 more formats.
234 exists in 5 printings on TCGplayer, and each is priced as its own product. At US$18.71 on TCGplayer this Borderless print is 2.8x the standard print at US$6.67. For reference the other printings read Borderless US$166.95, Borderless US$90.66, Borderless US$48.79 and Standard US$6.67 on TCGplayer.
The cheapest listing we track in the United States is US$15.00, 20% below TCGplayer's US$18.71 market price. 4 stores have it in stock, and the next-cheapest listing is US$18.50, 23% more than the cheapest, so the first row is worth taking.
The United States is the cheapest of the 5 markets that have it, and the United Kingdom is dearest at about 86% more once converted. In each market's own currency the cheapest listings read US$15.00 in the United States, C$23.40 in Canada, A$27.90 in Australia, S$32.90 in Singapore and £22.01 in the United Kingdom. Conversions use indicative exchange rates, and postage, duty and import tax are not included, so a cheaper market elsewhere is a fact about listings and not a reason to import.
The market price moved +4.2% over the last 7 days; there is not yet a 30-day window to set that against. Its 90-day high was US$20.11, 7% above today's price.
The Hobbit is a main expansion, released August 2026.
