MetaZoo card finishes & editions
The same card is printed in several finishes — normal, holofoil, reverse holo, first edition — and each one has its own market price. Here is every finish in MetaZoo, how many priced printings carry it, and what a typical one costs.
| Finish | Printings priced | Median | Top card |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | 1,008 | $0.19 | $20.00 |
| Holo | 407 | $0.85 | $74.99 |
| Reverse Holo | 346 | $0.35 | $10.99 |
Why the finish matters
A finish is the physical treatment of the print run: holofoil on the art, reverse holo on the frame, a first-edition stamp, etched or borderless foils. Collectors pay for the scarcer treatment, so the same card and number can be worth ten times more in one finish than another. Open a finish to see every printing that carries it and the premium it commands over the cheapest other version of the same card.
