Lookalikes & traps

Borderless and showcase frames of Ixalan / Cavern still need the LCI line; a fancy frame is not a different set by itself. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set The Lost Caverns of Ixalan is.

Confirm after the icon

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

How to identify The Lost Caverns of Ixalan cards

  1. 1

    Locate the The Lost Caverns of Ixalan set mark (LCI) before you trust the card name — reprints reuse names across products.

  2. 2

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

  3. 3

    Verify LCI on the bottom line; listings that only show the card name are where The Lost Caverns of Ixalan get mixed with siblings.

  4. 4

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

Rarity by symbol color

Modern rarity colors on the The Lost Caverns of Ixalan 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.
