Lookalikes & traps

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

Confirm after the icon

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

How to identify Tales of Middle-earth Promos cards

  1. 1

    Find the expansion symbol on the type line and match it to the Tales of Middle-earth Promos icon on this page (PLTR).

  2. 2

    Read rarity from symbol color on Tales of Middle-earth Promos: black common, silver uncommon, gold rare, orange mythic — foil sheen does not change it.

  3. 3

    Cross-check PLTR + collector number so Tales / Middle-earth Promos is not priced under the wrong product line.

  4. 4

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 PLTR and the collector number before comparing to a main-set printing of Tales.

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.
