I was playing with my dads KEM cards and somehow managed to loose a 2 of a hearts from one deck and an A of hearts from another. So now I'm trying to find the same ones online and buy him new ones. I found the exact ones I need, but there are two different styles:

Heres a couple of pictures of the cards so you can determine which style they are:

My question is which style is this card? European or Regular? I don't know what PIP means, or what an indice is, so I can't tell. I'm new to this forum so thanks for the help in advance!

you have regular index cards. when they mention something in all four corners, that would be the small A for and ace or K for a king, in all four corners. here's an example of european face with four pips:

and here is a regular index face:

there are also super index as well as magnum index, super being larger than the regular index, magnum being larger than that. don't confuse these either. also, you may want to measure the width of the card to determine if they are wide/poker size or narrow/bridge size. most kems you see nowadays are bridge, and yours look to be as well, but you should measure them to make sure.

bridge are 2 1/4" wide and poker are 2 1/2" wide. the two different sizes do not work well together in a deck, so make sure you get the right one.

good luck.

I just measured them and they measured 2 1/4 x 3 1/2, and since they are regular style, I think I have a match

. Thanks for the help!
