I've been looking at the Nefertari's Tarot. On the review here it looks more gold foil and has gold lettering on the top of the cards. However, if you use the link here to go see it at Amazon the deck there seems more of a flat bright gold and has white lettering on top. Is there 2 versions of this deck and which one is better?

This is probably one of the most gold decks you will find. You just cannot see the detail of it on a scan on the net. There are 2 versions. The Neferatari Deck is the gold foil one and the Tarot of the Sphinx is exactly the same but without the gold foil.

I know about Tarot of the Sphinx's but on Amazon website the scan of Nefertari's doesn't look gold foil (it looks more of just plain gold background) and the titles on the top look white where here on Aeclectic they are scanned gold. I want to make sure it's not a newer publication that was revised.

No it's not...it's the same one. I got mine through Amazon as well.

I take it the card titles are in gold not the white like it looks like right? I have wanted this deck for a long long time.

Hi Momof3, My Nefertari is with golden letters and gold foil background (the other version without gold foil is with blue borders, both are distributed by LoScarabeo). The only inconvenient about the Nefertari is that the gold foil leaves a kind of negative print on the back of the cards so that you can easily tell which cards you got simply by looking at the backs of the cards.

OK, it maybe me... But the only Nefertari came from The Mummy Returns..... or was that Nefertiti.... I can never remember.. they say it to fast
