Lookalikes & traps

Borderless and showcase frames of Innistrad / Crimson Vow still need the VOW line; a fancy frame is not a different set by itself. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set Innistrad: Crimson Vow is.

Confirm after the icon

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

How to identify Innistrad: Crimson Vow cards

  1. 1

    Locate the Innistrad: Crimson Vow set mark (VOW) before you trust the card name — reprints reuse names across products.

  2. 2

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

  3. 3

    Verify VOW on the bottom line; listings that only show the card name are where Innistrad: Crimson Vow get mixed with siblings.

  4. 4

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

Rarity by symbol color

Modern rarity colors on the Innistrad: Crimson Vow 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.
