Step 1 · Find it

Look for the small symbol on your card. On vintage cards it sits at the bottom right of the artwork frame. On modern cards it sits near the collector number at the bottom of the card.

Step 2 · Match it

Match the symbol to the chart below. The card’s energy-symbol rarity mark (circle, diamond, star) is separate from the set symbol.

Step 3 · Read up

Sets with a full guide on Bill’s Archive link straight through to the card list and set history.

No sets match that search.

Base Set has no symbol. A card with no set symbol is from Base Set. Its reprint, Base Set 2, adds a “2” symbol.

Wizards Black Star Promos carry a black star in place of a set symbol and use their own numbering.

A few recent symbols are still being added to the chart and show as placeholders.
