Lookalikes & traps

Promo stamps and prerelease marks sit beside Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 Promos art. Confirm the promo set code rather than assuming booster-pack PDP12. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 Promos is.

Confirm after the icon

Bottom information line should show collector number + set code PDP12 (and usually a C/U/R/M rarity letter). On Duels / Planeswalkers, mismatch between listing title and PDP12 is the usual bait-and-switch.

How to identify Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 Promos cards

  1. 1

    Locate the Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 Promos set mark (PDP12) before you trust the card name — reprints reuse names across products.

  2. 2

    Read rarity from symbol color on Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 Promos: black common, silver uncommon, gold rare, orange mythic — foil sheen does not change it.

  3. 3

    Verify PDP12 on the bottom line; listings that only show the card name are where Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 Promos get mixed with siblings.

  4. 4

    If icon and PDP12 still disagree with a marketplace title, scan with Tappr rather than guessing from art.

Rarity by symbol color

Special product (promo): rarity color may still follow modern conventions when a symbol is present, but SKU/treatment beats draft-rarity folklore. Verify PDP12 and the collector number before comparing to a main-set printing of Duels.

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.
