“Pictured above is the ‘Alpha’ Black Lotus from the collectible card game Magic: The Gathering. Dubbed ‘Alpha’ because it was published in the game’s first edition back in 1993, the Black Lotus was printed in a run of only 1100, and is now on the game’s ‘Reserved List’ of cards that will never be reissued. It’s typically considered the most valuable Magic card ever printed — but a recent eBay auction, which concluded on November 17, sets a new standard at $27,302.  Back in 1993, an 8-card ‘booster pack’ — which might have contained a Black Lotus if you were lucky — cost $2.45.”
