MtG

This page is a rough inventory of my collection of Magic: The Gathering (or MtG) trading cards.

Update 26.09.2019

• Everything listed on this page that is related to MtG is now on sale at the GamePlace shop in Lucerne. Some of major cards, such as the iconic Alpha Black Lotus, and many of the dual lands are already gone, though.
• The only things on this page that I have left at home are "The Duelist" issues 1-19 (except 17) (see below) and the non-MtG stuff.

External links

• Search for cards on scryfall.com (formerly magiccards.info).
• MtG Wiki, which has good background information on MtG (e.g. I didn't know what a foil card is).
• MOTL (Magic Online Trading League), which is a good source for realistic price information.
• Magic: The Gathering Forum, a German forum site
• cardmarket.com, an online marketplace for collectible cards that is, apparently, extremely popular in Europe.
• Print Run Statistics for sets printed in 1993 and 1994, i.e. how many of each card were printed? Has numbers on Alpha, Beta, Unlimited, Arabian Nights, Antiquities, Legends and The Dark (the last one with a higher margin of error than the others). A similar post on Reddit can be found here.

Non-MtG stuff

• Middle-earth Collectible Card Game: Most (if not all) cards from the first basic set "The Wizards" (METW). Possibly cards from 1 or 2 expansions?
• Jyhad (later renamed to "Vampire: The Eternal Struggle"): Sizeable but certainly incomplete collection from the initial basic set.
• Netrunner: Sizeable but certainly incomplete collection from the initial basic set. I think there are also some cards from the "Proteus" expansion.

• Doomtrooper: 1 starter pack.
• Star Wars Customizable Card Game: 1 starter pack.
• Wyvern: 1 starter pack.

• National Parks Collection: 30 cards issued by the Jefferson National Expansion Historical Association. Each card shows a picture on the front, and has an information text box on the back, about one of the National Park in the US. I have no idea where I got this from, or if the collection is complete.
• Everway: 5 vision cards, 1 fortune card, 1 quest card.
• On the Edge: 1 card "Chaos Incarnate".
• Illuminati: New World Order: 1 card "Trading Card Games".
