Collector Boosters are the premium booster product for each Magic set, packed with foils, showcase frames, borderless art, and extended art treatments. A single Collector Booster can contain five or more different variant types, and correctly identifying each one is essential for knowing the true value of your pulls. Many scanning apps struggle with the sheer variety of treatments found in a single Collector Booster pack. Lotus Scan is purpose-built for this challenge, accurately classifying each card by its specific treatment and pulling the correct market price.

Tips for Scanning Collector Booster Cards Cards

1. 1After opening a Collector Booster, lay all the cards face-up in a row and scan them left to right. This systematic approach ensures you do not miss any card.
2. 2For showcase frame cards, make sure the unique frame elements are fully visible in the scan area, as these are key to distinguishing the showcase version from the regular printing.
3. 3If you pull a serialized card from a Collector Booster, scan it for card identification and then manually record the serial number in your collection notes.
4. 4Use diffused lighting for the entire Collector Booster scanning session since almost every card will be foil.
5. 5After scanning all cards from a Collector Booster, review the scan results as a group to verify that each variant was correctly identified before committing them to your collection.
