# Metal Goggles #195/181 — Team Up

## Summary

Metal Goggles was a Tool aimed at Steel decks, trimming incoming damage and blanking damage-counter effects, but it was always a niche inclusion rather than a staple. As a gold Secret Rare Item in a set that mostly gilded Pokémon, it draws buyers who collect the set's hidden gold slots. The modelled guide sits at $4.25, down 5% over 30 days on 7 copies traded, with 380 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 brings $179, 42 times raw, but a 47% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade, and the slabbed population has not grown in 30 days, slower than 86% of tracked cards.
