Which version do you have?

For the cheapest ownership, grab the Standard version for only $2. The 1st Edition ($22) and Shadowless ($2) versions offer collectors a premium due to their scarcity and early printings, while the 1999-2000 version is also inexpensive. If you just want the card, buy Standard. If you seek investment potential or collect vintage, the 1st Edition is the clear choice for the higher price.
