About The Golden Throne
This page covers the surge foil printing of The Golden Throne (157★), a Legendary Artifact from Universes Beyond: Warhammer 40,000 (40K). It is printed at Rare rarity. It is legal in Legacy, Vintage, Commander and Oathbreaker.
157★ exists in 2 printings on TCGplayer, and each is priced as its own product. At US$25.76 on TCGplayer this Surge Foil print is 2.6x the standard print at US$9.81. For reference the other printings read Standard US$9.81 on TCGplayer.
The cheapest listing we track in the United States is US$20.00, 22% below TCGplayer's US$25.76 market price. 7 stores have it in stock, and the next-cheapest listing is US$25.75, 29% more than the cheapest, so the first row is worth taking.
Across 4 markets, Canada has it cheapest, about 10% below the United States before postage and import tax. In each market's own currency the cheapest listings read C$25.00 in Canada, US$20.00 in the United States, £17.41 in the United Kingdom and A$42.50 in Australia. 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 -0.7% 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$26.02.
Universes Beyond: Warhammer 40,000 is a main expansion, released October 2022.
