How much is my Dark Magician worth?
Yugi's signature card, priced print by print.
Dark Magician is the other face of early Yu-Gi-Oh! — Yugi's signature monster, printed first in Legend of Blue Eyes (LOB-005) and the Yugi starter deck (SDY-006), then reprinted continually for two decades in every rarity the game has invented.
Vintage first editions in high grades carry serious premiums, as do the scarcer promotional prints and modern alternate-art rarities; common reprints trade for very little. The set code under the artwork decides the market, and SnapCardValue reads it from a photograph and prices the exact print.

Your questions, answered.
Which Dark Magician print is the most valuable?
The first-edition LOB ultra rare leads, especially graded — followed by early promotional prints and scarce modern rarities like Ghost and Ultimate rare versions. Starter-deck and common reprints trade modestly.
How do I know which Dark Magician I have?
Check the set code under the artwork: LOB-005 is the original set print, SDY-006 the starter deck, and later codes are reprints. A gold 1st Edition stamp marks first editions.
Are the different-coloured Dark Magicians worth different amounts?
Yes — the alternate artworks and coloured variants each have their own print history and market. Some promotional versions are genuinely scarce; the exact print decides.
