Lookalikes & traps

Reprint risk is high on evergreen Commander staples; confirm CM2 before paying “original print” money for Commander Anthology Volume II / Grave Pact. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set Commander Anthology Volume II is.

Confirm after the icon

Bottom information line should show collector number + set code CM2 (and usually a C/U/R/M rarity letter). On Commander Anthology Volume II / Grave Pact, mismatch between listing title and CM2 is the usual bait-and-switch.

How to identify Commander Anthology Volume II cards

  1. 1

    Start with the Commander Anthology Volume II glyph silhouette; art style alone will not separate this commander product from guests and remasters.

  2. 2

    Use symbol color for draft rarity on CM2, then treat showcase/borderless as a separate finish check.

  3. 3

    Confirm set code CM2 and the collector number on the information line under the text box.

  4. 4

    Finish with a Tappr scan when Commander Anthology Volume II / Grave Pact appears under multiple set codes in the same lot.

Rarity by symbol color

Commander product symbol colors still use black/silver/gold/orange for draft-style rarity marks when present, but precon staples are not sealed-chase mythics by default. Read CM2 so you do not price a deck-exclusive printing as a draft-booster Commander Anthology Volume II mythic.

Common Black (white in rare exceptions)
Uncommon Silver symbol
Rare Gold symbol
Mythic Rare Orange / bronze (post-Alara)

Legend shows the modern post-Exodus palette. Pre-Exodus sets and special rarities (for example Time Spiral purple timeshifted) follow the rarity reading above — not this swatch row alone.
