From the Vault: Annihilation set symbol
From the Vault: Annihilation stamps every card in the product with its own expansion icon. Use the silhouette above as the visual key, then confirm set code V14 so remasters cannot pass.

Lookalikes & traps
Binder piles mix From the Vault: Annihilation with adjacent Standard sets. Silhouette first, then V14, before you trust a lot listing title. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set From the Vault: Annihilation is.
Confirm after the icon
Bottom information line should show collector number + set code V14 (and usually a C/U/R/M rarity letter). On From / Vault, mismatch between listing title and V14 is the usual bait-and-switch.
How to identify From the Vault: Annihilation cards
- 1
Start with the From the Vault: Annihilation glyph silhouette; art style alone will not separate this from_the_vault product from guests and remasters.
- 2
Use symbol color for draft rarity on V14, then treat showcase/borderless as a separate finish check.
- 3
Confirm set code V14 and the collector number on the information line under the text box.
- 4
Finish with a Tappr scan when From / Vault appears under multiple set codes in the same lot.
Rarity by symbol color
Modern rarity colors on the From the Vault: Annihilation symbol: black common (white only in rare one-set exceptions like Dominaria), silver uncommon, gold rare, orange/red-orange mythic. Foil, showcase, and borderless treatments keep the same rarity color — they change finish/frame, not the C/U/R/M letter.
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.
