'''Gold Rare''' (ゴールドレア ''Gōrudo Rea'') is a rarity introduced in (and exclusive to) ''[[Gold Series]]'' packs. A Gold Rare has gold lettering and a holographic foil image like an [[Ultra Rare]], but also has a holographic gold image border, effect text border, and card border. On [[Monster Cards]], the [[Level]] Stars are embossed in gold foil, similar to those of [[Ultimate Rare]]s. All [[OCG]] gold Ultra Rares look similar to Ultimate Rares when shined around. In the [[TCG]], this started in ''[[Gold Series 3]]'', following the "Ultimate" style of gold foil, discontinuing the original "Ultra" style of gold foil. These cards are more reflective than normal Ultra Rare cards, and reflect a gold shine.

'''Gold Rare''' (ゴールドレア ''Gōrudo Rea''), or simply '''Gold''', is a rarity introduced in and exclusive to the ''[[Gold Series (series)|Gold Series]]'' series of packs. A Gold Rare card has gold foil over the card name and holographic gold foil artwork like an [[Ultra Rare]], but also features gold foil over the artwork frame, text border, and card border. Originally these gold highlighted features used a holofoil similar to that of [[Super Rare]] cards, giving them a light-catching, holographic sheen, but from [[Premium Gold]] onwards, the golden features started using an almost fully reflective gold foil, similar to that used on the card names of [[Ultra Rare]] cards. Starting from ''[[Gold Series 3]]'' in the ''[[TCG]]'', [[Monster Card]]s also feature gold foil over the [[Level]]/[[Rank]] stars, similar to an [[Ultimate Rare]]. Additionally, starting from ''[[Premium Gold]]'', all Gold Rare cards have a golden prismatic foil pattern over the card names (similar to [[Prismatic Secret Rare]]), rather than 'flat' gold foil. In the ''[[OCG]]'', all Gold Rare cards from the first ''[[Gold Series (OCG)|Gold Series]]'' onward have always had gold foil over the [[Level]]/[[Rank]] stars (for [[Monster Card|monsters]]) and a prismatic foil pattern over the card name.
Two alternate styles of Gold Rares exist: [[Gold Secret Rare]]s (from ''[[Gold Series 2013]]'' (OCG) and ''[[Premium Gold]]'' (TCG)) have Gold Rare frames and the foil pattern of [[Secret Rare]]s, and [[Ghost/Gold Rare]]s (from ''[[Gold Series: Haunted Mine]]'') have Gold Rare frames and the hologram-like art of [[Ghost Rare]].

Gold Rare

Gold Rare (ゴールドレア Gōrudo Rea), or simply Gold, is a rarity introduced in and exclusive to the Gold Series series of packs. A Gold Rare card has gold foil over the card name and holographic gold foil artwork like an Ultra Rare, but also features gold foil over the artwork frame, text border, and card border. Originally these gold highlighted features used a holofoil similar to that of Super Rare cards, giving them a light-catching, holographic sheen, but from Premium Gold onwards, the golden features started using an almost fully reflective gold foil, similar to that used on the card names of Ultra Rare cards. Starting from Gold Series 3 in the TCG, Monster Cards also feature gold foil over the Level/Rank stars, similar to an Ultimate Rare. Additionally, starting from Premium Gold, all Gold Rare cards have a golden prismatic foil pattern over the card names (similar to Prismatic Secret Rare), rather than 'flat' gold foil. In the OCG, all Gold Rare cards from the first Gold Series onward have always had gold foil over the Level/Rank stars (for monsters) and a prismatic foil pattern over the card name.

Two variants of Gold Rares exist: Gold Secret Rares (introduced in Gold Series 2013 in the OCG and in Premium Gold in the TCG) feature the Secret Rare textured pattern over the gold foil, and Ghost/Gold Rares (exclusive to Gold Series: Haunted Mine in the TCG) feature the hologram-like artwork of a Ghost Rare card in place of the gold-foiled artwork.
