1993 Magic: The Gathering Alpha Ancestral Recall Rank - Most Expensive Magic Card: 14 Sale price: $38,500 Sale year: 2023 Sale location: CertifiedLink Grade: CGC 10 Ancestral Recall is the epitome of efficient card draw, a spell so powerful it has been a defining force in Magic: The Gathering since its debut in 1993s Alpha set
