About the reverse holo
A near-mint reverse holo Whimsicott 12/98 from Emerging Powers goes for about $5.19 ungraded, 3.3× the non-holo at $1.55. That figure is the marketplace price for the reverse holo on its own, not a blend with the other finishes.
On a reverse holo the artwork is flat and everything around it shines: the text box, the borders of the card body and the background all carry foil. Tilt the card under a light and the picture stays dull while the rest flashes.
Reverse holos are pulled from the same booster packs as the regular print, so the reverse holo Whimsicott shares its number, 12/98, with the main Whimsicott card. Check the finish before you price a copy: sellers who have one nearly always say so in the listing title.
The non-holo Whimsicott is $1.55 near mint. Whimsicott is card 12 in the Emerging Powers price guide. See every Whimsicott card with prices.
