As a card collector, you might have heard the terms “parallels". Most trading card products have a base set made up of common cards, and then a smaller number of more-limited variations called parallels. These cards essentially ‘run parallel’ to the base set - they have a similar look and design, but are distinguished by a unique physical quality. This distinguishing quality can be in the form of border color, texture, pattern, card material, image variation, or the printing technology employed. For more on parallels and other hobby terms, check out our How To Collect series:
