according to Crystal Keep, 23 cards have changes, and 7 cards were added.
And yes, I've seen many cards changed from Beta to Alpha to get rid of corner damage back in the mid 90's, and sold to dealers as "Alpha.'

Yes, you're correct. There are much more crude versions, and those have a circle instead of a letter. A marker fills in these circles with the appropriate color.

Alpha playtest uncut sheets
I thought it would be cool to share what an uncut sheet of Alpha playtest cards look like, so here you go. This is the third & final version (AKA Gamma printing). Most cards exist, it's just that I have to be wary of fakes hitting the market, so this is the only one I'll show publicly. Track me down...

Hi, yes Brian, myself, and another forum member Bradley (I think he is bradleyxace or something on here) bought these from a WOTC employee who no longer works there. He said these were press checks. I've been told the Chris Rush cards with identical fronts are artist proofs. I cannot confirm this bu...

I have access to nearly every single Gamma version card now, and can tell you what exists. I was given access to Richard Garfield's original uncut sheets and took pictures (don't ask how...) I'm a slow typer, so I'll break this up. Here is, I'm almost posative, every GREEN card in the Gamma/ final f...
