The most limited deck ever released by Theory11, with less than 1 gross being sold. This deck is not an officially released print run but rather the result of a mistake in printing. During the implementation of metallic gold to the deck the execution of printing was not up to standard and the full run was trashed - with the exception of a gross. This deck should be considered an "error" deck rather than a full public release deck. For those looking for the Gold Monarchs featuring hot foil gold on the cards (rather than just metallic gold) please refer to the later edition here: https://www.Portfolio52.com/deck/3690/view
