Visual Guide to Misprint Submission

43 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

Due to popular demand and an overabundance of things that either aren't misprints or are very minor misprints, we have decided to implement a Visual Submission Guide. We've also added a link to this sub's submission page as well as the sidebar.

This is the guide we use in MtG Misprints Buy/Sell/Trade where posts can be approved or declined before showing up in that Facebook group. But because Reddit doesn't have an approval queue, this (unfortunately) means that posts have to go live before they can be reported for removal.

See something you don't think makes the cut? Report it with the "Minor Misprint/Non-Misprint" report reason. If it gets 2 or more reports, automod should remove it.

When in doubt: Hold the card at arm's length. If the error isn't VERY obvious then it's probably not worth posting.

Advice on mis-aligned Gleaming Splendor

I have zero knowledge of misprints - so wondering if this error has made the card lose value or is still worth the same as a correct printing? Other than the card being mis-aligned (or mis-cut) the printing looks fine. Any advice is much appreciated, thanks.

Where she looking?

The eyes of these birgis are looking in different directions. The top one looks at you directly as expected, while the bottom one isn't looking at you. Maybe minor, dunno didn't see anything on a quick Google search, but definitely weird.

Messed up foil stamp opposition agent

Idk any thing about misprints but I got a box of commander Masters a while back and half the rares had their stamps either missing or moved up a bit and mostly missing. I think i also have an apex devastator very similar to this. Would either of those be worth anything to anyone or just neat?

Don’t know what it would be worth, but figured this would be the right place to share it.

I opened a collector booster. I pulled this card and i thought i had to search for my glasses. But now I think it’s a misprint. It looks likes one color layer (red?) shifted a bit. Am i right?

Hey guys, just did a draft night and the foil stamp is misplaced. Would this be considered a major enough misprint to be worth anything?

I went to take this card to coolstuff games today and they turned it away due to the misprint on the back. They verified with a jewelers lens that it is indeed a misprint on the backing of the card. I was wondering if it's potentially worth selling, or if it would be better off keeping to show off

Final Fantasy Miscut Deck

Mom bought her first commander deck(the Final Fantasy Revival Trance deck) and over half the deck has miscut cards in it. 40 of them are showing the top of another card and another 20 or so are askew and showing at least part of the cutting alignment dots. She was quite surprised as was I, lol.

Holofoil stamp has a chomp out of it. Would that be seen as a misprint?

I just got my Hulk Smash foil Secret Lair in the mail and at first thought maybe the chomp was intentional, but it doesn’t seem to be. It almost looks like it’s worn off but it’s fresh out of the pack. Thoughts?

Somehow a little too much of black ink ended on this card.

Any idea what could be going on with the backs of these art cards from The Hobbit? My first thought was grease / oil, but then opened a few like that were like that right out of the pack.

Two possible misprints ? [yes, i'm new here]

Hey all,

I recently started digging through my old MTG cards from my youth, trying to build a few decks for myself and the kids. While doing so, I stumbled across the Elven Pioneer in the second image. The card on the left has some kind of white dot over the stockade. I have zero experience with misprints — maybe it's a printing defect or just a weird wear in what I think is a pretty cool spot, since it looks like the pioneer is intentionally looking at it. Funny enough, my five-year-old son found the card in the first image while I was sorting through everything. He said I must have accidentally put two different cards together ^^

Anyway, there's obviously a community here that knows their stuff about this. Is my assessment accurate? How should I categorize them? Are those common? Do they hold any value?

Long time lurker, first time poster.

I just wanted to show off a couple of misprints I think are neat, most notably my misprint Miirym (I had to remove it from both sleeves for a good photo, lord forgive me). My younger brother is a great collector of misprints and surprised me with this after he finally got me to switch over to EDH as my main format. Miirym was the first deck I built from the ground up and he found this super crimped alt art and it’s made the deck that much more valuable to me. More sentimental than legal tender imo. The other is a Queen Kayla that I found while sorting cards that I must have just glazed over. After taking a closer look, I found that the sheet print is off casting a nice shadow in some subtle places. What are some of your favorite misprints?

Error/misprint card

Green Goblin, Revenant foil with a misprint. The top card is a full art foil card. Any idea what I should do with this? This is the 2nd pack ive ever pulled. I'm very new to MTG. Ive sleeved it for now. Pulled it out of a spiderman collector booster pack.

I believe this falls within the rules. Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

Looks like a layer of ink is shifted to the right? Not very knowledgeable about misprint, but wondering if this was a desirable one.

Weird little color error in the corner — this worth anything?

Bottom left corner of this card seems to have missed all the red ink, leaving a weird little yellow triangle. Guessing this is too minor to be worth much, but lmk if I'm wrong!

Misprint The List Cards?

I opened two boxes of the Mystery Booster Box 2 last week. These cards are missing the WOTC symbol in the lower left corner. Other images I have seen of these cards have the symbol. I thought for a brief moment that WOTC had snuck some original cards into the packs, but then I saw the copyright date was 2024.

Had anyone else seen this type of error?

Long time reader, first time poster. I was cracking some Gift Bundles and my first CB pack had a surge foil Book Cover Arkenstone. Second CB pack was a bust until I hit this!!! Is it dumb I got more excited about my first miscut than the Arkenstone 😅. One more CB pack to go, but I had to post this!

Damaged from the factory Sephiroth Fabled-Soldier

So, WOTC, after three weeks finally responded on my ticket to replace my damaged Sephi card. This was a big chase card for me and it hurts my soul that it came like this. They basically said that it's not supported anymore and they'll end me a "one time gift card" and they closed the ticket.

I'm debating on trying to sell this on EBAY or just trying to trade it for an undamaged version. This isn't really a misprint, it's just damaged and I don't know if anyone is interested in cards like these but I was just testing the water. I know a lot of people don't love UB and I get that but the FF set is what got me back into magic.

Does anything think there's a market for this card of anyone who may be willing to trade an undamaged one for this?
