How to identify Foundations cards

  1. 1

    Find the expansion symbol on the right edge of the type line (or bottom-center on older frames) — for Foundations it's the icon shown above.

  2. 2

    Read its color to get the rarity: black is common, silver is uncommon, gold is rare, and orange or bronze is mythic rare.

  3. 3

    Check the bottom-left corner for the collector number and the set code “FDN” to confirm you're looking at Foundations.

  4. 4

    Still unsure? Scan the card with Tappr — it reads the art and symbol together and names the exact set and printing.
