How to tell if a Pokémon card is 1st edition or unlimited?

To tell if a Pokémon card is First Edition (1st Ed) or Unlimited, look for the black "1st Edition" stamp (number 1 in a circle) on the left of the art box for 1st Ed; Unlimited cards lack this stamp and have a drop shadow around the art box (except Trainer/Energy cards), bolder text, and a 1999 copyright date. All 1st Ed cards (except Machamp) are also Shadowless, meaning they have no border shadow, making them rarer than Unlimited.
