Japanese Charizard No Rarity Star

[The_Charizard_Authority]

I know little about Japanese cards. Could anyone help me out with the this particular Base Japanes Charizard that does not have the rarity star?

Do let me know if this pic url does not work. It works on my end but it was just a email download.

The image link doesn't work.

Usually if it doesnt have an rarity emblem, it probably came from a special deck of some sort. Hope that helps

No it does not work for me although I know of the card you are talking about.

The Japanese Base set cards with no rarity symbol are of the first print run of them. They are sought to be the '1st Editions' of the Japanese Base set before they added in rarity.

Thanks and sorry about the link. If I get more time I will update with a better pic.

Yeah, as FrostyFluxy said, there weren't any 1st Edition stamps, so if there isn't a rarity symbol, it's sort of like the 1st Edition of the set.
