GamingEtc Token Cards

Index | Series 1 | Series 2


GamingEtc is a US fantasy store founded by Howard Greenspan in 1999. In September 2002 they created a series of token cards for Magic the Gathering. Consisting of a print run of 5000 cards, these tokens could either be obtained as a complete set if the purchase value of any trade exceeds $ 25 US, or could be bought individually. Additionally, for every complete set sold, a list card was added. The token cards do not display power and toughness settings to avoid copyright infringement.

Due to the success of their first token series, GamingEtc released a second series of token cards in December 2003, again with a print run of 5000. Like cards of the first series, these tokens could be purchased individually or as a complete set. In addition, complete sets, consisting of one of each token card plus an additional checklist card, were offered in three different versions: a basic edition with an additional randomly chosen token card signed by the appropriate artist in black, a silver edition limited to 500 sets where each token card was signed by the appropriate artist in silver, and a gold edition limited to 100 sets where each token card was signed by the appropriate artist in gold.
