One Piece card rarity
Updated October 4, 2026
Every One Piece card has a rarity label and a card number. Together they tell you how common the card is and which printing you hold. This page covers the printed rarities, the special treatments that sit on top of them (parallels, SP, manga rares, Treasure Rares, DON!! cards), what pulls cost in a box, and which of them hold their price.
How to read the rarity code on a card
The card number is printed in the bottom right corner of the card, in the form OP13-118: the set code, a dash and the number inside the set. The rarity label sits next to it. Starter deck cards use ST, extra boosters EB, premium boosters PRB, and promos have a P- number such as P-117.
A parallel (alt art) printing keeps the number of the regular card. This is why the official banned list says “parallel cards included”: the number identifies the card, and the art is only a version of it. Two copies of OP13-118 with different art are the same card in a deck and different products in a binder.
One Piece card rarity list
| Code | Rarity | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| C | Common | The base of every set. Several in each pack. |
| UC | Uncommon | Less frequent than commons, still easy to collect. |
| R | Rare | At least one in a pack by most accounts. Some sets add parallel rares. |
| SR | Super Rare | Foil cards, three or more in a box in community counts. Many staple cards are SR. |
| SEC | Secret Rare | The top rarity of the regular set, gold-foil look, a few per case. |
| L | Leader | The card that leads your deck. Found in booster packs and starter decks. Not a power tier. |
| SP | Special | Alternate art of an existing card, issued in boosters. |
| TR | Treasure Rare | Premium treatment from the Treasure Boosters Set. |
| P | Promo | Event, tournament and product promos, numbered P-001 and up. |
Leaders deserve a note. L tells you what the card is, and it does not rank the card against an SR or SEC. A Leader can have an SR or SEC parallel, which is where the collector value sits.
Parallels and alt art
An alt art or parallel card is a second print of the same card with different artwork. It plays the same as the base printing. Collectors pay for it because far fewer are made.
Parallels come in a few forms. Rare, super rare and secret rare cards each get alternate versions in many sets. SP cards are alternates of an existing card, mostly a Leader or a favorite Character. A figure from Haki’s database shows how common they are: of 4,622 known printings in its count, 1,757 are alternate art, 566 full art, 197 promos and 11 Treasure Rares, against 2,091 base printings.
SP cards
SP cards are the special alternates. They have new art and often a textured foil or an artist’s signature. The effect and the card number match the regular card, so an SP of a legal card is as legal in a deck as the base copy.
SP cards of popular Leaders and of Luffy and Shanks variants sell for hundreds of dollars and sometimes more. If you want to check one in your own binder, scan it and read the price in the app.
Manga rares
A manga rare, also called a comic parallel, uses artwork lifted from a manga page: black and white or limited color panels as the background. It is the most chased treatment in the game and is community terminology, so the name varies between shops.
Manga rares are the rarest regular pull. In Japanese OP-15 data from a community count, a comic parallel Secret Rare came in at about 0.84 percent per box, or one per roughly 119 boxes. Other sources put manga rares at one per two to four cases. Either way you open a hundred boxes or more for a good chance.
Treasure Rare
Treasure Rare (TR) is a premium treatment that first came out in English in the Treasure Boosters Set on August 30, 2024. They are scarce by design, and Haki’s database counts 11 of them. Check the card number and the TR label on the card itself, because shops use “treasure” loosely.
DON!! cards
DON!! cards are the energy cards, not part of the 50-card deck, and have their own treatments.
- The standard DON!! card has a plain background.
- Alt art DON!! cards carry full art or manga panels with foil.
- Gold DON!! is the name collectors use for the gold foil version, which community counts put at about two per case in newer sets.
Searches for a “your turn” DON card usually mean the rule text, not a printing. On a Character or Leader, “[DON!! x1]” followed by “[Your Turn]” means the effect is on while at least that many DON!! cards are attached to it during your own turn. It has no connection to the DON!! card rarity.
Pull rates
Bandai does not publish a universal pull rate table for each rarity. Everything below is community reported. Treat it as an estimate and expect it to shift from set to set.
A box is 24 packs of 6 cards, and 12 boxes make a case.
| Pull | Community estimate, per box | Source and note |
|---|---|---|
| SR | At least 3 | Reported as confirmed for OP-15; other counts say more |
| SEC | About 17 to 25 percent, one in four to six boxes | Japanese OP-15 community data |
| SP (any) | About 7.8 percent, one in 13 boxes | Japanese OP-15 community data |
| DON!! super parallel | About 8.4 percent, one in 12 boxes | Japanese OP-15 community data |
| Manga rare | About 0.84 percent, one in 119 boxes | Japanese OP-15 community data |
Several other sites give higher or lower numbers for the same cards, including a rate of one SP per 160 packs. The gap comes from small samples and different sets. Read them as a ballpark.
Which rarities hold value
The rarity code is a starting point. In practice value comes from four things at once.
- Demand for the character and the art. An SP or manga rare of Luffy outsells nearly everything.
- Play value. A staple SR that every deck of a popular Leader runs can sell above a weak SEC.
- Scarcity. Manga rares, Gold DON!!, Treasure Rares and promos are all produced in small numbers.
- Condition and grading. Condition matters more as rarity goes up, and graded copies of SEC and SP cards carry a premium.
Commons and uncommons spike near release and then fall. SEC and SP cards have held their price better over time in the sources we read. A banned card keeps its collector value, since the ban only covers tournaments. See the ban list for the current one.
Check what your cards are worth
Rarity tells you how a card was printed. To see what it sells for, look it up. BountyScan reads the card with your phone camera, shows its rarity and market price, and adds it to your collection. For prices by card, start with the One Piece card prices page.
Frequently asked questions
What is the rarest One Piece card?
Manga rares and the numbered or signed special printings are the rarest, and community pull data puts a manga rare at roughly one per 100 boxes or worse. A rarity code does not give the full picture, though. A scarce promo can be harder to find than a secret rare.
What does SP mean on a One Piece card?
SP is the label for special cards, which are alternate art versions of a card that already exists, often a Leader or a fan favorite Character. An SP card plays exactly like the regular version with the same card number's effect, and only the art, finish and price differ.
Are parallel cards and alt art cards the same thing?
In everyday use, yes. A parallel is an alternate art printing that shares the card number of the regular card. SP cards, manga rares and many SR and SEC alternates are all parallels.
Is a secret rare always worth more than a super rare?
No. Price follows demand and play value as well as rarity. A strong Leader deck staple at SR can sell above a weak SEC, and an SP of a popular character often sells above both.
How many One Piece cards are in a booster box?
Community sources and retailers describe a box as 24 packs of 6 cards, 144 cards in total, and 12 boxes to a case. Bandai does not publish a per rarity pull rate table for the game.
Does BountyScan show the rarity of a card?
Yes. When you scan a card, BountyScan identifies it and shows its card details including rarity, so you can tell a regular printing from a parallel.
