Vintage
New 1-year highThe Vintage Index tracks established classics from the WotC era through the early EX period: Base Set holos, Neo-era chase cards and Gold Stars. These cards trade on scarcity and condition rather than on new-release cycles, and tend to move more slowly than the modern market.
