Greetings collectors and Pokemon enthusiasts,

To start, here's an important note: take a look at my other listings—I have several packages available, both light and heavy!:

I am thrilled to present the next addition from my private collection – a rare find for true Pokemon aficionados!

Item for Sale:

1x Factory Sealed Pokemon Base Set Booster Pack with BLASTOIE artwork, ENGLISH, from the coveted 4th print for the UK market with 1999-2000 copyrights and a long seal (NOT with long foil). HEAVY! 21.382g

*** WEIGHED! The pack weight is: 21.382g

This exclusive print is often referred to as 4th Print UK or Base 2000.

Attention! The Polish label on the back weighs approximately 0.19 grams, as seen in one of the photos. So the weight of the 'clean' booster is about 0.19 grams lower.

What You'll Receive:

• A single booster pack featuring the iconic BLASTOISE artwork, meticulously preserved in mint condition.

• You will receive the exact pack that you see on the pictures.

• Package weighed on a semi-professional scale. The package weight is: 21.382g

• This pack is safeguarded within a transparent sleeve, adorned with my original warranty sticker for added authenticity.

• Your pack will be carefully enveloped in bubble wrap, sandwiched between two sturdy cardboard layers, and then secured inside a protective bubble envelope or box.

• IMPORTANT! The small label with the package weight, visible in one of the photos, is affixed inside the protective film, not directly on the package itself!

Key Features:

• Fresh boosters in pristine condition.

• Original Pokemon Base Set published by Wizards of the Coast, crafted in the UK (not in USA, not in AU or Canada)

• An internationally licensed Nintendo product.

• Each booster comprises 11 cards from the Pokemon TCG Base Set.

• These cards originate from the Polish distribution by Hasbro, clearly indicated by the stickers.

• All cards are in English, and the boosters remain unopened, unresealed, and untouched.

• All boosters have Polish sticker on the back.

Important Information:

• Notably, not all cards bear the "1999-2000" mark, but boosters with Polish stickers have the highest probability as they represent the latest print of the Base Set.

• Expert insights reveal that U.K. packs with Polish information labels have the best chance of containing 1999-2000 holo cards.

Unique Characteristics of this Base 2000 Set:

• This offering is the UNLIMITED U.K. ONLY VERSION, distinct from the "Unlimited Edition With Shadow."

• Specifically crafted for the U.K. market, this issue was also distributed in Poland.

• Differences include a brighter or lighter printing and cards have a chance to have distinctive Copyright text at the bottom of each card.

• The Copyright reads: "1995, 96, 98 Nintendo, Creatures, GAMEFREAK C 1999-2000 Wizards."

• Discovering this version of the Base Set is a rare feat, even within the UK, and remains unknown to many collectors.

• This set includes a 1st Edition Machamp, a unique feature shared with every other Base Set.

Historical Significance:

• Cards printed just before the release of Base Set 2 may include the year 2000 in their copyright notices, known as “4th issue” or “Base 2000” cards.

• These cards, with slightly brighter colors, are rarer than the "unlimited" print.

As these cards are no longer in production, their value continues to appreciate.
