Lookalikes & traps

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

Confirm after the icon

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

How to identify Grand Prix Promos cards

  1. 1

    Find the expansion symbol on the type line and match it to the Grand Prix Promos icon on this page (PGPX).

  2. 2

    Read black / silver / gold on the Grand Prix Promos symbol for common / uncommon / rare — mythic orange is not in this era.

  3. 3

    Cross-check PGPX + collector number so Grand Prix Promos is not priced under the wrong product line.

  4. 4

Rarity by symbol color

Exodus-through-pre-mythic rules: black common, silver uncommon, gold rare on the Grand Prix Promos symbol. Mythic orange does not apply yet (Shards of Alara, 2008). Purple timeshifted is a Time Spiral-family exception, not a generic PGPX rule.

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.
