'''Ultimate Rare''' (アルティメットレア ''Arutimetto Rea'') cards have an "embossed" foil on the Card Artwork, including the borders of artworks, [[Attribute]] icon, and on [[Monster Card]]s, the [[Level]] stars. The card name is printed gold, like an [[Ultra Rare]]. When scanned, the embossed image may be muted and the image indistinct from the background. This card rarity is very hard for [[Scaler]]s to find, since the card is much thinner than a normal [[Super Rare]] or Ultra Rare, with has a weight comparable to that of a [[Common]]. Ultimate Rare cards usually also come in a less rare variety that can be found in the same booster with the same card number.
''[[OCG]]'' Ultimate Rares tend to scan much better than their TCG counterparts, due to a slightly reflective coating present on all OCG cards (but lacking on TCG cards). This has the advantage of brightening the image, and making the foil image more distinct than on a TCG equivalent. In the OCG, Ultimate Rares have been known to be printed as independent rarities, while they are used exclusively as an additional Booster Pack rarity in the TCG.
