How do you tell if an MTG card is a prerelease?
Nah, it's not about the shininess or stamps. Check the collector number. If it's different from the regular set, it might be a special prerelease or promo version.

Prerelease MTG cards have a distinct date stamp on them. Look for a small, gold-foil date stamped directly on the card. This stamp shows the date of the prerelease event for that set. Sometimes, it's right there in the text box, other times near the bottom. Plus, prerelease cards often come in a special promo version that's not found in the regular booster packs!
Easy - if it's shiny and has a date on it, it's probably a prerelease card. Prerelease cards are like the special guests at a party; they stand out.
