I suppose to be strictly accurate, I should ask which Minchiate, but I'll go further and say it's none of them. Keep guessing.

I thought it was the Cosmic Tarot, but I went through the deck and couldn't find that tail. Darn. What else could it be?

Hmm, trying to decide whether I should post a bigger snippet or a hint.

I guess I'll go with the larger snippet. Don't want to look like I'm being too sneaky.

Me neither! It's extremely tantalising, as the artwork looks so familiar. I almost went for the Alchemical, but I checked through and I can't see it. I am going to be kicking myself if it turns out I've got this deck somewhere!

Oh, and Oakdragon, the Minchiate I was referring to was The Minchiate Tarot - the one by Brian Williams. But anyway, you've clarified that it's none of them.

I'm getting the feeling from various people that maybe this is too difficult, though I didn't think it would be. I might as well give my clue right away too:

This deck is by a famous tarot deck designer (that's probably why it looks familiar), however, it's not one of their more popular decks, as far as I know.

Is that a Folchi I spy?

I am guessing the Christopher Columbus deck...

Man... this has been driving me nuts since yesterday!

Yes, Chronata, you got it! It's the Tarocco di Colombo by Amerigo Folchi and as coincidinces would have it, I just won this deck on eBay a few minutes ago, too! You turn! Here is the full card, the Knight of Cups.
