By Printing
By printing: Normal (non-holo): The plain printing — no foil anywhere. Price trackers say “Normal,” collectors say “non-holo”; usually the cheapest version of the card. $400 · Holo: The artwork shines with a foil pattern. A separate printing from the plain card, and in vintage sets often worth many times more. $431 · Reverse holo: Everything except the artwork is foil — the reverse of a normal holo. It's a separate printing and prices on its own. $800
TCGplayer prices each printing on its own — the Normal printing is the headline number on this page. Same card, same number — the print run or foil treatment is what changes.
