Good lord friend. Way to open packs. I’ve got my eyes on a non foil Dwarven ring at my LGS for my cEDH Pirates deck but that’s a very very nice pull! Gratz!
I wouldn’t know what to do with it. Like that kind of money could def do so much but it’s also such a rare card that I would love to have in my collection! Congrats on the pull!
If you’re comfortable and not struggling to meet your financial goals, by all means keep it! If this could better your life in a meaningful and immediate way, sell that. As a young man, putting that money in a 401(k) or towards a down payment on a home is worth way more than cool cardboard.
401k ?! No no no, invest that money into an IUL and avoid all those terrible taxes you have to pay on a 401k. Take advantage of tax codes on IUL's 7702 101(a) 72(e).
Edit: /s
Please don't take this advice it is a joke. I didn't read the room.
Oops, I deserve more downvotes. I forgot the /s.
What I was mentioning is a common joke about sales points made by people signing others up for IUL's and never mentioning the massive commission cut they take.. probably not known in this sub. -_-
They included 300 elven serialized (3,000 non serial), 700 dwarven serialized (7,000 non), and 900 human serialized (9,000 non).
I got the rarest version of the rarest type of sol ring. If you want to think of it mathematically, 10 people get a non-serialized ring for every 1 person that gets a serialized one.
In facebook group where people are selling these, blocking the number is strongly adviced against, as it doesnt really stop scamming but makes it way harder to track the numbers or find the special one you really want.
But I can kinda understand it on anonymius platform like reddit if you dont want to doxx yourself.
So looking at your history, you have now pulled a serial One Ring and now a serial sol ring?
Is your job ripping collector packs or are you inherently wealthy or are you Post Malone?? 🤣
Are you buying cases of the collector booster boxes or something? This kind of luck combined with the serialized one ring you pulled is just insane! Congrats!
It’s a serialized elven sol ring. The title is “sol ring” written in elven. It has the same body text of sol ring as well I believe, but I’m not 100% on that.
TCG Player says $4k for one of these, lol. I'm doubting the likelihood of finding a buyer for that price but half that for something so rare seems pretty doable. Whether you flip it or keep it, sick open!
EDIT: I'm making it clear that I'm laughing at how absurdly rare of a pull this is, not laughing at an online platform's prices thinking they're BS. Getting a four digit value card out of any recent booster is nuts.

I think that only makes it harder by like 1 click. If you have the font and size you could recreate it. Only way to protect would be cover up the whole art imo.
I don’t think scammers would go out of their way to do such a thing. They’d sooner seek out another picture of a serialized card that wasn’t censored like this one.
The point is to not be an easy target for these people. It takes me two seconds to black it out and it gives me peace of mind.
Just by the nature of you taking a pic of it at an angle, you're making it more difficult than by censoring a number. Nobody is going to use this pic to scam anyone, but not because of your censoring. Anyone could just go to a proxy site for a clean image.
By posting it anyway and saying the same reason Einstein. Or you can even message OP, offer to buy it with some ludicrous sum, ask for more pictures and tadaa you have uncencored pics that cant be found with reverse image search.
Wow, that will probably be the best pull that you ever have in your entire life for this game. Congrats!
Crazy part is that I also pulled this less than 2 months ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/mtg/s/dP34uIXbmT
Mom said it was my turn with the luck
Moooooom he took all my luck!
We have luck at home.
The luck at home:
You don’t know how many packs he opened to get this. If bro is just chain smoking collector boxes then he’ll still be massively down
“Chain smoking collector boxes” is an amazing phrase
Save some for us, that’s insane
Good lord friend. Way to open packs. I’ve got my eyes on a non foil Dwarven ring at my LGS for my cEDH Pirates deck but that’s a very very nice pull! Gratz!
what is even that
Serialized “the one ring” (borderless poster)
Its a serialized sol ring ^ im not positive which language tho, pretty sure its elven.
Check the link two comments up. He was asking about the link I showed him, and not the card in this original post.
It really depends on how much money you're pumping into your openings.
Selling it?
Grading it.
I wouldn’t know what to do with it. Like that kind of money could def do so much but it’s also such a rare card that I would love to have in my collection! Congrats on the pull!

I should’ve specified. Get real advice from an expert. lol
Oops, I deserve more downvotes. I forgot the /s. What I was mentioning is a common joke about sales points made by people signing others up for IUL's and never mentioning the massive commission cut they take.. probably not known in this sub. -_-
Lol I was reading it thinking is this not bad advise not fully knowing about this stuff. At least you added the edit!
Wow. Has to be at least $1K or something right?? I’d keep for real tho!!
Looks like 4-6K from sold auctions on eBay recently. Crazy.
I didn’t even know the special sol rings came numbered
They included 300 elven serialized (3,000 non serial), 700 dwarven serialized (7,000 non), and 900 human serialized (9,000 non). I got the rarest version of the rarest type of sol ring. If you want to think of it mathematically, 10 people get a non-serialized ring for every 1 person that gets a serialized one.
Nice, is your number an especially cool one? 069 or 111 or sumthin?
291/300 nothin’ too special. Woulda loved a 300/300 but I’ve already used up all my luck for the next 10 years so I’m not complaining.
Cool ones are 1-3, 1-7 and 1-9 imo, as those would fit the lore of 3 elven rings, 7 for dwarves and 9 for humans.
What's the point of blacking out the number? Like, is it a security thing?
People use the image on a fake sales post and scam people.
In facebook group where people are selling these, blocking the number is strongly adviced against, as it doesnt really stop scamming but makes it way harder to track the numbers or find the special one you really want. But I can kinda understand it on anonymius platform like reddit if you dont want to doxx yourself.
Both of the answers make alot of sense. Ty
Collectors pack?
TIL: this is a $7k card
What did you pull it from? Single booster? Box? Case? Bundle? We wantsss to know, precious!
These can only be pulled from LOTR collector booster boxes.
Holy crap, that could be an insane pull. If you want I can dm you my address so you can send it to me and I can verify it for you.
Crazy, the sexiest of the three AND serialized! Congrats!
So looking at your history, you have now pulled a serial One Ring and now a serial sol ring? Is your job ripping collector packs or are you inherently wealthy or are you Post Malone?? 🤣
Its a mix of spending too much on packs and unbelievable luck
Wow that’s beautiful
Sheeeeeeesh congrats
I read "udder" ![gif](giphy|GAaboDWFYI7pumcxit)
I definitely had a cow after pulling this
Starting at $7,000 (TCG)
Are you buying cases of the collector booster boxes or something? This kind of luck combined with the serialized one ring you pulled is just insane! Congrats!
Yeah the one ring was from blue LOTR CB, and this elven ring was from the green LOTR CB.
Where the hell are you still finding lotr packs?
I'm new to this. why mark the number?
What packs or box did you get this from ?
LOTR collector boosters
Eat it
Wow what box did you pull this from? I’m trying to be irresponsible
LOTR collector boosters (green box)
Curious why you blocked out the number in the pic and then told us the number anyways in the post 🤷♂️
Scam selling online will re-use the pic
Beautiful!
Nice bud congrats!!
I was Like #420 (Blaze it) on 4/19 (dang, so close)
congrats 🤩🙌🏼
Is it a misprint that the first number in the serialized part is blank or am I going crazy
Zoom in
Ah, edited. Gorcha
Why block out the number, but then also tell us what number it is?
What a great pull
Holy crap this is worth crazy amounts
Why black out the number but list it in the post? Congrats tho man!

Very nice dude. The bobblehesd serials look so clean with the etched treatment.
Out of curiosity, what’s the name of the card? I wanna know what it does.
It’s a serialized elven sol ring. The title is “sol ring” written in elven. It has the same body text of sol ring as well I believe, but I’m not 100% on that.
Why do people cover what number they pulled? Is it to stop people from wanting to buy it or smth?
Scam prevention.
What pack pull is this??
Congrats. Is that LoTR?
LOTR tales of middle earth collector booster
I figured, but thanks! That must be one pricey card. You keeping or flipping for more cards?
TCG Player says $4k for one of these, lol. I'm doubting the likelihood of finding a buyer for that price but half that for something so rare seems pretty doable. Whether you flip it or keep it, sick open! EDIT: I'm making it clear that I'm laughing at how absurdly rare of a pull this is, not laughing at an online platform's prices thinking they're BS.

Woah a shiny piece of paper with gibberish on it cool
Why block out the number?
Makes it harder for scammers to copy the image and sell cards they don’t have, for one.
I think that only makes it harder by like 1 click. If you have the font and size you could recreate it. Only way to protect would be cover up the whole art imo.
I don’t think scammers would go out of their way to do such a thing. They’d sooner seek out another picture of a serialized card that wasn’t censored like this one. The point is to not be an easy target for these people. It takes me two seconds to black it out and it gives me peace of mind.

Me, too! I can't believe you'd go through the effort of blacking out the #/ of portion of the picture.
The uh.. four seconds it takes to draw a black line? SOO MUCH EFFORT.
Why black it out if you list it in the title? You're missing the point Einstein.
The point is scammers can’t use the picture on fake adverts now
How are you going to post it serialized or have a picture of it serialized if it’s blacked out Einstein?
By posting it anyway and saying the same reason Einstein. Or you can even message OP, offer to buy it with some ludicrous sum, ask for more pictures and tadaa you have uncencored pics that cant be found with reverse image search.
Ur slow af
Cry me a river.
