PSA Languages

Does PSA grade any other languages after base set besides English and Japanese?

Last I recall it’s only base set if it’s not one of those two languages. Nothing past that

sadly they won’t and I don’t see any reason for them to change that in the foreseeable future, given the flood of cards they are getting in. If you watch german base set for example, that does have almost the same amount of set registries as japanese base set, eventhough japanese cards were graded from the beginning and german cards only the last 4 or so years. German base set is also crushing japanese base set in prices.

Apart from the Base Set, they only grade cards released in English/Japanese speaking countries in some cases.

Most are already mentioned above, but some non Base Set foreign cards they grade include:

But apart from some exceptions, and some errors PSA made (i.e. the German PSA-graded Rayquaza gold star that’s been floating around on eBay for years), the answer is no.

EDIT: Oh, didn’t knew they grade those as well @muk. That’s interesting. TIL, thanks. :blush:
