Shanks One Piece cards run from a standard booster Leader to two manga-rare comic parallels that ask in a different price tier altogether.
That gap is the whole story of collecting Shanks in the One Piece Card Game. He’s been printed as a Leader in two sets, reprinted into a starter deck, folded into an English-language anniversary box set, and — twice — hit with a manga-style comic parallel (commonly called “comipara” by collectors) that turns an ordinary Character card into a five- or six-figure chase print.
Sealed OP-16 — The Time of Battle, the booster that contains the Shanks common print (OP16-006), is currently listed at ¥10,437 (~$68).
Shanks has two confirmed manga-rare (comipara) chase prints — the OP01-120 SEC from Romance Dawn and the OP09-004 SR from Emperors in the New World — and both ask far above every other print. His two Leader cards are OP09-001 (Red) and ST05-001 (Purple). Sealed OP-16 — The Time of Battle contains the Shanks common (OP16-006).

Prices below are SNKRDUNK asking prices measured on August 7, 2026. Where only one or two listings were available at a given ask, treat it as a data point, not a confirmed market.
Key Shanks One Piece Cards and What They’re Asking
The confirmed prints rank by top asking price.
| # | Card | Set | Raw ask | PSA 10 ask |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Shanks SEC manga rare — OP01-120 | Romance Dawn (OP-01) | ¥140,000 | ¥290,000–700,000 |
| 2 | Shanks SR manga rare — OP09-004 | Emperors in the New World (OP-09) | ¥165,000 | ¥330,000–450,000 |
| 3 | Shanks L — OP09-001 (2nd Anniversary Set print) | English 2nd Anniversary Set | ¥18,000–33,888 | ¥49,800–110,000* |
| 4 | Shanks SR — OP09-004 (2nd Anniversary Set print) | English 2nd Anniversary Set | — | ¥29,800–42,888 |
| 5 | Shanks L-P parallel — OP09-001 | Emperors in the New World (OP-09) | ¥4,000–6,999 | — |
| 6 | Shanks L standard reprint — OP09-001 | ST-23, Red Shanks starter deck | ¥2,222 | — |
| 7 | Shanks L standard — OP09-001 | Emperors in the New World (OP-09) | ¥1,000 | — |
| 8 | Shanks C — OP16-006 (OP-16 booster print) | The Time of Battle (OP-16) | booster pull | — |
*The top PSA 10 ask on row 3 is a notable outlier against three other PSA 10 listings for the same card — treat it as one seller’s opening position rather than the going rate.
The two manga-rare comipara prints sit in an entirely different tier from everything else on this list. The Leader prints, the anniversary-set examples and the starter-deck reprint are listed in a much more accessible band.
The Two Manga Rares: OP01-120 SEC and OP09-004 SR
Manga-rare parallels — “comipara” in collector shorthand — swap a card’s usual painted art for linework pulled straight from the source manga. They’re printed at a much lower rate than the standard card in the same slot, and Shanks has two of them on the official card list.
The first and highest-asking is the SEC comipara of OP01-120, from Romance Dawn (OP-01), the game’s original 2022 set. Raw examples are asking around ¥140,000, and graded PSA 10 examples span a wide ¥290,000–700,000 range across five separate listings — a spread that reflects how thin the listing pool is for this print even at the graded level. A separate re-release of the same manga-rare art exists inside PRB-01 — ONE PIECE CARD THE BEST, the 2024 premium reprint booster covering OP-01 through OP-06. SNKRDUNK showed a single PSA 10 listing for that PRB-01 re-release as of August 7, 2026, so no price is given. For the wider PRB-01 lineup, see our PRB-01 pull rates and best cards guide.
The second is the SR comipara of OP09-004, from Emperors in the New World (OP-09), the set built around the game’s second anniversary. Raw asks sit around ¥165,000, with PSA 10 examples asking ¥330,000–450,000. OP-09 also carries a third-anniversary special variant of the same card number — a gold-background and a silver-background version, both listed on the secondary market — with a single listing for each, so no price is given. For the full OP-09 set breakdown, see our OP-09 pull rates and best cards guide, and for OP-01, our Romance Dawn best cards and pull rates guide.
OP01-120 and OP09-004 each exist as a standard-art SEC/SR and as a separate comic-style manga rare. The manga rare is what’s asking six figures — the standard printing of the same number is a different, far cheaper card. If you want the full picture on manga rares across the game, our One Piece manga rare cards guide covers the format set by set.
The Leader Cards: OP09-001 and ST05-001
Separate from the manga rares above, Shanks has been printed as a Leader card twice — and Leader cards trade on a different axis entirely, since they’re deckbuilding requirements rather than chase pulls.
- OP09-001, Red, the Leader from Emperors in the New World (OP-09). The standard booster print is asking around ¥1,000, with a parallel version (L-P) from the same set asking ¥4,000–6,999. The same Leader was reprinted into the ST-23, Red Shanks starter deck, where it asks ¥2,222.
- ST05-001, Purple, the Leader printed for the ONE PIECE FILM edition starter deck — the officially confirmed Film-tie-in Shanks Leader print.
If you’re building a Red Shanks Leader deck, OP09-001 is the Leader you need (one copy per deck), and the ST-23 reprint of the card is a single-card route compared with chasing individual booster pulls.
The English 2nd Anniversary Set Prints
Alongside the standard OP-09 booster prints, English-language print versions of both the OP09-001 Leader and the OP09-004 SR circulate as part of an English 2nd Anniversary boxed set. Both Japanese-market-sold and English-print examples of these show up as separate listings on the secondary market, and the prices here are for the Japanese-market-sold examples.
The Leader copy is asking ¥18,000 raw (with a top ask of ¥33,888), and PSA 10 graded examples cluster at ¥49,800–54,800 across three listings. The SR copy doesn’t have a confirmed raw ask, but PSA 10 examples are asking ¥29,800–42,888.
Which Shanks Print Fits Your Budget
By asking price, the lineup breaks down in five tiers:
- Entry tier — the standard OP09-001 Leader booster pull or the ST-23 Red Shanks starter reprint. The most direct route to a Shanks Leader for deckbuilding.
- Parallel tier — the OP09-001 L-P parallel. Same Leader, alternate art, a step up from the standard print.
- Anniversary raw tier — the raw English 2nd Anniversary Set Leader print, for collectors after the anniversary-specific version rather than the booster pull.
- Graded anniversary tier — PSA 10 graded examples of the 2nd Anniversary Set SR and Leader prints (excluding the outlier listing).
- Chase tier — the two manga-rare comipara prints, OP01-120 SEC and OP09-004 SR, raw or in PSA 10. This is the tier collectors are actually chasing when they search for a Shanks manga rare.
Both manga rares show PSA 10 ranges spanning more than ¥100,000 across a handful of listings — that’s thin-market pricing, not a stable band. If you’re chasing either one, decide your ceiling before you start watching listings, and don’t treat the top of the range as the price you’ll actually pay.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the most valuable Shanks card?
The manga-rare (comipara) SEC of OP01-120, from Romance Dawn (OP-01), is the highest-asking confirmed print. A second manga rare, the SR of OP09-004 from Emperors in the New World, is the other comipara chase print; only the OP01-120 SEC’s top PSA 10 ask runs higher.
What is a manga rare (comipara) Shanks card?
A comic-style parallel print that swaps the card’s usual painted art for linework pulled from the source manga, printed at a much lower rate than the standard version of the same card number. Shanks has two confirmed manga rares: OP01-120 SEC (Romance Dawn) and OP09-004 SR (Emperors in the New World).
What is the cheapest Shanks card?
The standard OP09-001 Leader print from an Emperors in the New World booster is the lowest-asking confirmed print, and the same Leader reprinted into the ST-23 Red Shanks starter deck is the next step up. Both are Shanks Leader cards for deckbuilding, not chase-rarity pulls.
Does Shanks have a Leader card?
Yes — OP09-001 (Red), the Leader from Emperors in the New World, also reprinted into the ST-23 Red Shanks starter deck, and ST05-001 (Purple), the Leader from the ONE PIECE FILM edition starter deck.
