Seattle baseball fan sells rare raccoon trading card for $20,100
A 13-year-old girl won an auction on eBay for a one-of-a-kind gold trading card featuring a viral raccoon.
A 13-year-old Seattle baseball fan, Abby, sold a rare trading card for $20,100 at an online auction on Sunday, August 30, 2026, according to the Times of India.
The card, which features Jimothy, a viral Seattle raccoon, was a gold edition handed out during a Seattle Mariners game at T-Mobile Park on August 5.
The Mariners organised a promotion during their game against the Detroit Tigers where the first 20,000 fans received Jimothy-themed cards, but Abby received the only gold version in existence.
The auction on eBay attracted approximately 100 bids before closing.
The sale price surpassed the $19,800 fetched earlier this year by a limited-edition Los Angeles Dodgers card featuring the One Piece franchise, according to The Athletic.
Abby's mother, Jessie Nino, said the family intended to use the proceeds to support her daughter's future, including college education and a potential home purchase.
