I've recently begun making abacus-style life/token counters such as the one below (not my work), and I decided to compile a list of cards with nice art that I would like to make counters out of. And if you have any of these cards, I will likely be happy to trade for them, though some of the more high-cost cards I probably won't bother with for a while. Also, be sure to note the specific set, because the art matters. :3

If you know of a card that you think would make a good/interesting abacus counter, please let me know! I would love to get more ideas. Things to consider: popping imagery and roundish, largeish shapes (no spindly spider webs. At least not yet).

Also, if you would like to commission one from me, just shoot me a comment to discuss examples and pricing.
