How to recognize first edition Pokemon cards
To spot a first edition Pokemon card, look for the 'Edition 1' logo. It's a small, round symbol located typically on the left side, just below the Pokemon's picture. This logo looks like a circled '1' and is the tell-tale sign of a first edition. Also, don't forget to check the card's condition and authenticity, since first editions are highly sought after!
