Lookalikes & traps

Promo stamps and prerelease marks sit beside San Diego Comic-Con 2016 art. Confirm the promo set code rather than assuming booster-pack PS16. Also watch foil vs nonfoil: sheen does not change which set San Diego Comic-Con 2016 is.

Confirm after the icon

Bottom information line should show collector number + set code PS16 (and usually a C/U/R/M rarity letter). On San Diego Comic-Con, mismatch between listing title and PS16 is the usual bait-and-switch.

How to identify San Diego Comic-Con 2016 cards

  1. 1

    Start with the San Diego Comic-Con 2016 glyph silhouette; art style alone will not separate this promo product from guests and remasters.

  2. 2

    Use symbol color for draft rarity on PS16, then treat showcase/borderless as a separate finish check.

  3. 3

    Confirm set code PS16 and the collector number on the information line under the text box.

  4. 4

    Finish with a Tappr scan when San Diego Comic-Con appears under multiple set codes in the same lot.

Rarity by symbol color

Special product (promo): rarity color may still follow modern conventions when a symbol is present, but SKU/treatment beats draft-rarity folklore. Verify PS16 and the collector number before comparing to a main-set printing of San Diego Comic-Con.

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.
