About Bard, Mercurial
Bard, Mercurial (Showcase, Signature) is the Signature print of Bard, Mercurial — numbered 228*/221, past the end of Spirit Forged's base run, which is what makes it far scarcer than the ordinary showcase printing. It sits in the Mind domain, at 4 energy to play and 4 might.
Bard, Mercurial is up 16% over the last week, up 20% over the last month, at US$506.59 in the United States today. That puts it at the top of its tracked range (US$175.95–US$506.59) — buying now means paying about as much as it has ever cost. Against a median of US$339.99, it is currently 49% expensive by its own standards.
3 stores in the United States have it in stock, but the pricing is top-heavy: US$439.89 at the cheapest, then a 47% jump to US$645.75 for the next one. That cheapest listing is doing all the work — if it goes, the effective price of this card rises by roughly 47% overnight.
The foil runs US$645.75, 1.5× the non-foil at US$439.89.
Bard, Mercurial is stocked in 4 of the markets we track — the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada — each priced in its own currency, so the table above ranks by delivered cost inside whichever market you pick rather than converting between them. In the United States the cheapest listing is US$439.89 before postage and US$439.89 delivered.
The Signature print carries a 2094.7× premium over the plain version — US$439.89 against US$0.21. Both are legal in the same decks, so that gap is paying for the art and the scarcity, not for anything on the table.
Within Spirit Forged this is a genuine chase card: it is more expensive than 94% of the 346 priced cards in the set, against a set median of US$0.23. Cards at this end of a set's distribution are what make sealed product worth opening, and what make it expensive to buy singles for a deck that needs them.

Prices are live listings from stores in each market, in the currency that store actually charges. The “≈ USD” column is an indicative conversion for comparison only — not a quote, and not what you'll be billed. Stores generally ship within their own market, and international postage, duty and GST/VAT aren't included, so a cheaper market elsewhere isn't necessarily cheaper to get delivered to you.
