This is a faux pas, as is the suit of Pentacles in place of Coins.As a TdM reader, I was thrilled by a TdM in a tin, but disappointed by it not being a true TdM.True, it is based on the deck by Rolla Nordic, but even that deck got Fortitude and Justice right even if they share pentacles in place of coins.Still, I really like the tarot in a tin product line and hope that more genuine TdMs are included. I already have the Tarot of Maria Celia which is the only TdM tarot in a tin published by US Games Systems Inc.I like the aesthetics of white on black and aside from my complaints, I will use them. Maybe US Games will eventually reissue it, or better yet, make more genuine TdMs available in a tin. |
