Lookalikes & traps

Remasters, Special Guests, and Commander decks reprint Guilds / Ravnica under other codes — matching art is not proof of GRN. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set Guilds of Ravnica is.

Confirm after the icon

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

How to identify Guilds of Ravnica cards

  1. 1

    Find the expansion symbol on the type line and match it to the Guilds of Ravnica icon on this page (GRN).

  2. 2

    Read rarity from symbol color on Guilds of Ravnica: black common, silver uncommon, gold rare, orange mythic — foil sheen does not change it.

  3. 3

    Cross-check GRN + collector number so Guilds / Ravnica is not priced under the wrong product line.

  4. 4

Rarity by symbol color

Modern rarity colors on the Guilds of Ravnica 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.

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.
