# Star Piece (Japanese) #082 — Split Earth

## Summary

Eight months before the English set Skyridge carried the same Trainer, Japan had Star Piece, released in August 2002 in Split Earth. The Japanese uncommon shows a small red star-shaped fragment glowing on pale, rocky sand, with a thin cord trailing from it, set inside the e-Card era's orange Trainer frame. Its modest uncommon slot makes it a quiet pickup for anyone assembling the Japanese Star Piece line. The modelled guide sits at $6.00, flat over 30 days on 1 copy traded, with 121 days of inventory on the board; no PSA population is on file, and a PSA 10 would fetch about $88 against $65 in grading fees.
