10 Dungeon Crawler Carl Cards Worth The Most Money

Many Dungeon Crawler Carl fans are just now learning about the officially licensed and newly released Trading Card line from Borant: A Syndicate Company. Don't let the name confuse you: it is an actual merchandiser with officially licensed Dungeon Crawler Carl products and gear, despite being named after the fictional corporation from the books.

The Trading Cards have released to somewhat mixed reviews among longtime readers, with some collectors complaining that they aren't very high quality and the art is sometimes questionable and reminiscent of AI-generated work, though there's no evidence for that being the case. The cards officially launched in May this year, and are available at retailers such as Target, Hot Topic, Barnes and Noble, etc., though stock is a mixed bag and will vary depending on your location.

Despite the mixed reception, some of the rarest Dungeon Crawler Carl cards are already fetching hundreds or even thousands of dollars on the resale market. Many of the most valuable cards sold so far are the limited-edition Emerald-tier exclusives from San Diego Comic-Con 2026, though it's still relatively early in the trading card line's lifespan. Ultra-rare Sketch and Signed 1:1 cards have yet to establish reliable resale values through confirmed transactions, and many cards haven't been professionally graded.

As such, the following list reflects some of the highest confirmed sales to date (primarily via eBay), rather than a definitive ranking of which cards will ultimately prove the most valuable.

Emerald Baby Mongo (SDCC #03)

Confirmed Sale: $315

Baby Mongo is one of the most beloved supporting characters in Dungeon Crawler Carl, having first appeared in the original book as Princess Donut's pet velociraptor, or "Velociraptor mongoliensis" if you want to get technical. The little chicken dino quickly became an essential member of the Royal Court of Princess Donut, eventually growing into a truly invaluable companion and Donut's prized battle mount. He's also a great moon walker.

Mongo's popularity has carried over into the collectible card market, with the Emerald variant of his SDCC-exclusive card commanding a surprisingly high price. On September 8, 2026, an ungraded copy of Emerald Baby Mongo #03 sold for $315 on eBay after attracting 13 bids, with other similar cards and even the Gold Foil variant selling relatively high as well.

Emerald Maestro (SDCC #05)

Confirmed Sale: $325

The Maestro is certainly one of the more memorable personalities in Dungeon Crawler Carl, originally appearing as an imposing, boar-like orc and obnoxious television personality. His connections to the Skull Empire eventually establish him as a major antagonist in the franchise's larger story.

The Emerald Maestro card is part of the limited Legendary Crawl Con collection released for San Diego Comic-Con 2026. Although its standard version is comparatively easy to obtain, the Emerald parallel is significantly rarer and highly sought after among collectors. One copy of Emerald Maestro #05 sold for $325 on eBay.

Emerald Uzi Jesus (SDCC #06)

Confirmed Sale: $343

Uzi Jesus, also known as HeyZoos, is easily one of the more ridiculous characters introduced in Matt Dinniman's universe, which is saying quite a lot. First appearing in The Eye of the Bedlam Bride, he's an undead T'Ghee totem card associated with the Royal Court of Princess Donut, complete with an Uzi and an appropriately outrageous collection of abilities.

His Emerald SDCC trading card is especially interesting considering the character's origins in the books' own card-based combat system. The collectible has already attracted major interest, with Emerald Uzi Jesus #06 selling for $343 on eBay on August 11, 2026, following an auction that received 16 bids.

Emerald Goblin Engineer (SDCC #10)

Confirmed Sale: $360

Longtime readers will undoubtedly remember the Goblin Engineers, who were among the very first enemies Carl encountered after entering the World Dungeon. These creatures are responsible for operating the infamous Goblin Murder Dozers, deadly mechanical contraptions that nearly ended Carl's adventure before it could properly begin.

The Engineer Goblin is also one of the ten subjects featured in the SDCC-exclusive Legendary Crawl Con collection. Despite being a relatively minor enemy compared to the franchise's main characters, its rare Emerald parallel has attracted a decent premium. An individual Emerald Goblin Engineer #10 sold for $360 on eBay, showing that collectors aren't exclusively interested in the series' big-name protagonists alone.

Emerald Ralph (SDCC #04)

Confirmed Sale: $405

Ralph is another wild enemy from the original Dungeon Crawler Carl novel. The seemingly adorable Frenzied Gerbil is actually an extremely dangerous Neighborhood Boss encountered on the dungeon's Second Floor, with an insatiable hatred of humanity and an unnervingly enormous mouth.

It's fitting that such an absurd character would get its own collectible card, though perhaps more surprising that he's already among the most expensive. The Emerald version of Ralph's SDCC-exclusive card is particularly difficult to find compared to its standard counterpart. One Emerald Ralph #04 sold for $405 on eBay, putting the diminutive dungeon boss ahead of several more prominent characters.

Emerald Goblin (SDCC #09)

Confirmed Sale: $425

Goblins have been part of Dungeon Crawler Carl since the very beginning, appearing among the first monsters Carl encounters after entering the dungeon. Their involvement in the dangerous Murder Dozer encounters helped establish just how unpredictable and deadly the World Dungeon could be, even on its earliest floors.

The standard Goblin is also one of the ten included in the SDCC-exclusive collection, alongside the separate Goblin Engineer above. Both have valuable Emerald parallels, although the regular Goblin has landed the higher documented price in this selection. Emerald Goblin #09 sold for $425 on eBay.

Princess Donut 1/1 Sketch Card — Brett Bean Autograph

Confirmed Sale: $799.99

Unlike most of the cards on this list, this Princess Donut collectible isn't simply a rare Emerald foil variant. It's a one-of-one artist sketch card, featuring original artwork attributed to Brett Bean, who is also associated with the franchise's comic book releases. Sketch cards are especially desirable because each original illustration is unique, meaning another collector cannot obtain an identical example.

Princess Donut's popularity certainly adds to its appeal, considering she's effectively the franchise's second protagonist alongside Carl. The combination of a beloved character, original artwork, and an artist's autograph makes this a particularly notable collectible. A Princess Donut 1/1 Sketch Card was listed as sold for $799.99 on eBay, although that single transaction shouldn't be treated as the established value of other one-of-one sketch cards.

Emerald Mordecai (SDCC #08)

Confirmed Sale: $1,025

Mordecai has been one of the most important characters in Dungeon Crawler Carl since the beginning, serving as Donut's guide and mentor to Carl throughout the party's journey. His history as a former crawler and his ever-changing physical appearance, not to mention his intense backstory, have all cemented him as one of the franchise's best characters.

Interestingly, the SDCC collection features two different Mordecai cards with separate appearances, with #08 depicting his Incubus form. This particular Emerald parallel has already commanded a remarkable resale price, with Emerald Mordecai #08 selling for $1,025 on eBay. It's one of the few individual DCC trading cards in this selection to surpass the $1,000 threshold.

Emerald Princess Donut (SDCC #02)

Confirmed Sale: $1,250

It should come as no surprise that Princess Donut takes one of the highest spots on the list. The Queen Anne Chonk has become inseparable from Dungeon Crawler Carl, with her sharp wit, dramatic personality, sweet dance moves and amazingly terrible singing, and surprisingly formidable magical abilities making her one of the most beloved characters in the entire series.

Princess Donut's Emerald SDCC card is quite valuable among the convention-exclusive variants, combining the popularity of one of the franchise's leading characters with the scarcity of the premium foil treatment. One Emerald Princess Donut #02 sold for $1,250 on eBay, putting it comfortably ahead of most other documented individual sales.

Emerald Carl (SDCC #01)

Confirmed Sale: $1,525

Naturally, the most expensive Dungeon Crawler Carl trading card in this selection features the franchise's titular protagonist. Carl has become one of modern fantasy's most recognizable heroes, with his determination to survive the World Dungeon, crafty and elaborate scheming, and trademark heart-patterned boxer shorts helping define Matt Dinniman's immensely popular series.

His Emerald SDCC-exclusive card currently boasts the highest confirmed individual sale in this selection. On August 25, 2026, an ungraded copy of Emerald Carl #01 sold for an astonishing $1,525 on eBay after receiving 44 bids. It's a remarkable figure for a collectible that debuted only a few weeks earlier, and one that illustrates just how much some collectors are willing to spend on rare Dungeon Crawler Carl merchandise.
