ABUGames.com Guide to determine what edition a Magic the Gathering card is from

(click on the card pictures below for a larger image)

 
 
Most Magic the Gathering cards have a unique expansion symbol on the right side in about the middle of the card. Each of these symbols represents a certain set (Sets are also referred to as Editions or Releases). The Champions of Kamigawa Expansion Symbol on the card below denotes that this card is from the Champions of Kamigawa set.
Gifts Ungiven from Champions of Kamigawa
The early Base / Core Sets did not have expansion symbols and are more difficult to determine which set they are from. There are also Specialty Sets that often include reprints that use expansion symbols from previous sets which is very confusing. So unfortunately just knowing the expansion symbols doesn't gaurantee a card is from a perticular set. The most common source of errors in missidentifing what set a card is from are cards from Chronicles as these look very similar to Arabian Nights, Antiquities and Legends with those expansion symbols only they are white bordered.

Promo cards are usually special versions of existing cards. They often have an alternate expansion symbol. ABU usually has every promo listed with pictures in the promo section. If you are not sure if a card is a promo, check the Promo section.

Below is a list of all Magic The Gathering sets along with the information you can use to identify what set a card is from.
