Serialized Magic: The Gathering cards and the foil Halo treatment returned with the launch of March of the Machine, featuring a large number of MTG varients worth money.
Wizards of the Coast continued its trend of dropping a variety of variations spread across multiple types of cards within the March of the Machine (MOM) set. Legendary team-ups within the set were given a Planar Showcase frame that represented the plane they were protecting from the Phyrexian Invasion.
A total of 65 reprints were added to the March of the Machine Standard-legal set, similar to Mystical Archives in STX and Retro Artifacts that were within the BRO set. Of the 65 cards, 15 have a rarity of Mythic Rare, 30 Rare, and 20 at Uncommon.
Leading up to the release of Lost Caverns of Ixalan (LCI), singles prices of MOM cards on the market dropped once again. A couple of normal versions maintained a value over $10 USD while serialized Praetor variants were still priced above $1,000. A large number of serialized Multiverse Legends held onto their value as well, featuring dozens of cards priced at over $100. And several Japanese exclusive tokens with gold-stamped signatures crested over $100 in value.
Other variants within the MOM set included extended art, borderless planeswalkers, foil-etched treatment, and traditional foil treatments. All values of MOM cards featured were determined through MTGStocks, MTGGoldfish, and TCGPlayer. Prices are subject to change.
Most expensive Multiverse Legends in MOM
Multiverse Legends were given the same Planar Showcase treatment as Legendary team-ups, along with a foil Halo treatment and serialized versions. And serialized MOM Multiverse Legends were exclusive to less than one percent within collector boosters, making them a popular chase card. But it was the serialized Praetor Sagas that eventually became the most valuable on the secondary market, having the same drop rate as Multiverse Legends within collector booster packs while featuring a double-rainbow foil treatment.
