Alternate printing of AQ Tawnos's Wand

Post by berkumps » Mon Dec 01, 2014 7:08 am

I read somewhere that part of the print run for AQ Tawnos's Wand had an alternate printing, fixing some sort of mistake. Does anyone know what this could be?

Hi Mark

No idea what you talk about, different pic or text for the Antiquities version ?

I have no idea also, but I'm thinking it might be like the hairy Runesword from The Dark.

Haven't heard of it before--doesn't mean much though.

Just looked at my uncut sheet and the one in my collection--they are the same.

You are thinking of Tawnos's Weaponry, with the off-center mana circle

Wow, thats a cool find. Does this happen to like half of the printrun or is one version far more rare ?

This Misprint is old as Antiquities, I don't think that Mark was talking about it, as it's a real classical one. And to answer your question: Each version is equally rare.

Well the wand has a spot, similar to the arabian Desert variation, but if the person he talked to is calling that a misprint I'm going to be really angry.

This is the article I saw this information in. Perhaps it's a typo, and they meant Tawnos's Weaponry.

You should have started by that, of course it's Tawnos's Weaponry #-o

The Crystal Keep info about them being equally rare is incorrect.
The card appeared on the sheet 3 times, so they can't possibly be equally rare.
There will be two versions of one, and one version of the other.

Update:
I checked an uncut sheet, and one of the three Tawnos's Weaponry cards has the error with the grey circle in the wrong location.
It's the top left one, as shown in this picture.
