BSG Black Triad Card & Cubits

Cubits are the currency of the Twelve Colonies and can often be seen in the pilots rec room, as betting money for Triad games. Triad cards come in many colors and denominations that can be combined to create different hands, such as Starbucks famous “Full Colors.” This is a black-bordered playing card with a silver and gold coin cubit, as used during the gambling scenes in Battlestar Galactica.
