About The Arkenstone

This page covers the borderless printing of The Arkenstone (270), 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.

270 exists in 5 printings on TCGplayer, and each is priced as its own product. At US$90.66 on TCGplayer this Borderless print is 14x the standard print at US$6.67. For reference the other printings read Borderless US$166.95, Borderless US$48.79, Borderless US$18.71 and Standard US$6.67 on TCGplayer.

The cheapest listing we track in the United States is US$77.06, 15% below TCGplayer's US$90.66 market price. 24 stores have it in stock, and the next-cheapest listing is US$79.49, only 3% more, so postage will decide the order.

Across 4 markets the prices sit close together; Australia is cheapest, but not by enough to cover shipping. In each market's own currency the cheapest listings read A$108.44 in Australia, US$77.06 in the United States, C$120.10 in Canada and S$131.00 in Singapore. 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 -1.2% over the last 7 days; there is not yet a 30-day window to set that against. It is trading at its 90-day high of US$92.74.

The Hobbit is a main expansion, released August 2026.
