How many Black Lotuses Printed?
I'm just curious exactly how many Black Lotuses were printed? Obviously there won't be as many around today, but in Alpha, Beta and Unlimited how many were there? Also this number would be the same for the rest of the P9 and rares they stopped printing after Unlimited?

     1,100  Alpha Rare
     4,500  Alpha Uncommon
     16,000  Alpha Common
     85,500  Alpha Land (per picture)
     3,200  Beta Rare
     13,500  Beta Uncommon
     48,000  Beta Common
    171,500  Beta Land (per picture)

     18,500  Unlimited Rare
     68,000  Unlimited Uncommon

Re: How many Black Lotuses Printed?
Yes, the number is the same for all rares that were discontinued after unlimited such as gauntlet of might and illusionary mask too. The above figures seem rÃght, although I thoguht I heard 16,000 Unlimited rares from elsewhere, but I think it was a mix up in my head :)

Re: How many Black Lotuses Printed?
But the I'm guessing the number would be lower due to destroyed cards. I don't know if anyone else read this article (very early Inquest), but I guy was writing in about how 30 of his Lotuses were destroyed in a flood. I probably read this letter about 6 years ago and never forgot about it.

At most you can probably take off 10% from each of those numbers.
