hey i just stumbled upon my magic cards today and i was thinking about selling them, the problem is that i have no idea what all these symbols mean and what series they are from.... here's what i got
- a series that has nothing on it, no dates nor symbols, just the illus name
- a series with 1995 on the bottom
- another with 1997
- one with a white border with a cracked colliesum thing
- two jointed wheels
- circle donut thing
- a hammer
- an anvil
- a palm tree
- an open book
- a cloud with a lighting bolt
- an arabrian sword, white border
- a flag
- a sliver moon white border
- a sliver moon black border
- a V
- and finally a cirle with 3 seprate pieces in the middle
thanks for the help! |

I have a level two Zizorborg with 22 FG points. AND awhit elfe with super ultra rockets. I also have a gorgonite card.
GO MAGIC!!! |

maaan, i wish you asked me this a few years ago
ummm,
-palm tree is Mirage i believe
-cloud with lightening bolt is Tempest
-I know The Dark, one of the first expansions had a crescent moon as its symbol, but I have no idea what the difference in the borders there means |

could be a number of different ones. Alpha, Beta, 4th through 8th Edition look like that. You can tell by the borders though.
- a series with 1995 on the bottom
4th Ed.
- another with 1997
5th Ed. I think
- one with a white border with a cracked colliesum thing
Chronicles, Legends
- two jointed wheels
no clue
- circle donut thing
no clue
- a hammer
no clue
- an anvil
antiquities
- a palm tree
mirage
- an open book
- a cloud with a lighting bolt
no clue
- an arabrian sword, white border
Arabian Nights
- a flag
Fallen Empires
- a sliver moon white border
- a sliver moon black border
Dark
- a V
no clue
- and finally a cirle with 3 seprate pieces in the middle
Homelands
I can't believe I remembered all that. |
|
ok
-anvil is Antiquities
-scimitar is Arabian Nights (and I don't mean knights)
-if by cracked coliseum thing you mean a cracked column, that is Legends
There are too many factors to consider. The ones with white borders could be older editions, or Chronicles, which are rereleases of the first 5 editions, where they redid them with a white border. ummmmm

I doubt you'll get all you're looking for, but it's a start. |

Oh man, moran's got it covered, except he's wrong about one thing. The flag isn't Fallen Empires, Fallen Empires has a crown as a symbol. |

Alright, I am the biggest geek ever. Let's rock!
Nothing on it - If it's white boardered, Unlimited. If black, it's Alpha or Beta. Alpha has rounder edges than other cards.
'95- 4th edition.
'97- 5th edition.
White boarderd cracked pillar - Chronicles (A set containing reprints of older sets. The pillar is Legends, but the white boarder means it's a reprint).
Circle Donut Thing - If it looks kind of like a snake, Torment. if not, Planeshift.
Hammer - Urza's Legacy.
Two joined wheels - Urza's Saga.
Anvil - Antiquities.
Palm Tree - Mirage.
Open book - Weatherlight.
Cloud with bolt - Tempest.
Arabian sword, white boarder - Chronicles (reprint from Arabian Nights).
Flag - Alliances.
Sliver moon, white boarder - Chronicles (reprint from the Dark).
Sliver moon - The Dark.

this is the only one idk..... the date on them is 97 if that helps... |
|
Oh man. I lose.
I totally forgot that this set existed. Does it look kind of like a stone well? If so, that card is from Portal. That set was for learning how to play Magic. |
|
