Так как Магия - коллекционная карточная игра, ее карты представляют коллекционную ценность. При оценке карт используются следующие термины, присущие жаргону коллекционеров:

M, Mint - an expression used in the description of pre-owned goods. Originally, the phrase related to the way collectors described the condition of coins. As the name given to a coin factory is a "mint", then mint condition is the condition a coin is in when it leaves the mint [Prescott Holden, 2003, с.134].

NM, Near Mint - things in Near Mint condition show minimal to no wear from handling and should have an unmarked surface, crisp corners if any, and unblemished edges outside of minimal handling [Prescott Holden, 2003, с.134].

SP, Slightly Played - things in Slightly Played condition show definite, minor wear. Examples of cards in this grade include cards with minor border wear, minor corner wear, very minor binder bending, slight scratching, clouding, or scuffing/loss of sheen on the front due to play wear [Prescott Holden, 2003, с.135].

MP, Moderately Played - things in Moderately Played condition show moderate wear. Examples of cards in this grade include cards with moderate binder creasing, moderate corner wear, moderate border wear, whitening on the back or front face of the card, slight inking along the back borders, moderate scratching or clouding, minor water damage, or slight (hairline) shuffle creasing [Prescott Holden, 2003, с.135].

HP, Heavily Played - Heavily Played cards include cards that have writing on the back, major creasing, folding, major water damage, moderate to major whitening, major border wear, moderate to major inking (including white-bordered cards that are markered on front to look black-bordered), tearing, chunks missing out of the card [Prescott Holden, 2003, с.136].

Редкость карт определяется при помощи терминов, заимствованных у филателистов и коллекционеров различных спортивных карточек:

Common - common is one of four rarities of stamps of collectable cards (for example, baseball cards). Cards of stamps that are of the "common" rarity are often referred to as "commons". Commons are the most abundant cards, and often the cheapest [URL: www. collectorscorner. com].

Uncommon - uncommon is one of four rarities of stamps of collectable cards (for example, baseball cards). Cards of stamps that are of the "uncommon" rarity are often referred to as "uncommons". Uncommon collectable cards are identified by a special symbol printed on them, often of a different colour, mainly silver [URL: www. collectorscorner. com].

Rare - rare is one of four rarities of stamps of collectable cards (for example, baseball cards). Cards of stamps that are of the "rare" rarity are often referred to as "rares". Rare cards are identified by a special symbol printed on them, often of a different colour, mainly gold. Rare stamps or cards are difficult to obtain, so they have higher collecting value, than common or uncommon cards [URL: www. collectorscorner. com].

Mythic Rare - mythic rare is one of four rarities of stamps of collectable cards (for example, baseball cards). Cards of stamps that are of the "mythic rare" rarity are often referred to as "mythic rares". Mythic rare cards are identified by a special symbol printed on them, often of a different colour, often red. Mythic rare stamps or cards are the most difficult cards to obtain, so they have the highest collecting value among all of the others [URL: www. collectorscorner. com].

A Misprint - a mistake in a printed material resulting from editorial or mechanical failures of some kind; misprinted collectible cards are of a special value [URL: www. collectorscorner. com].
