Vesuvan Doppelganger (Retro Frame) Price

Updated 2026-08-23

Vesuvan Doppelganger in Retro Frame treatment from 30th Anniversary Edition is a non-tournament-legal commemorative printing of the classic blue shapeshifter from Magic's original 1993 print runs. The 30th Anniversary Edition reproduced 302 original cards using gold borders to distinguish them from tournament-legal versions, sold at premium price points as a collector item celebrating three decades of Magic: The Gathering. Vesuvan Doppelganger enters as a copy of any creature in play and can re-copy each upkeep, making it one of the most flexible early clone effects in Magic history. All price windows are flat, consistent with a card that trades in a thin collector market. The 30th Anniversary Edition cards are non-tournament-legal and were criticized for their price point at release, but have since established themselves as collectibles distinct from standard reprints. Condition matters as with all premium-priced singles in this category.
