Underworld Coinsmith

Description

Underworld Coinsmith is an Uncommon Enchantment Creature — Human Cleric from Magic: The Gathering’s Commander 2015 set, designated as card number 237 in the C15 checklist. Designed by Mark Winters, this dual-colored card requires one white mana and one black mana to cast, resulting in a mana value of two. With a power and toughness of 2/2, it functions as a low-cost entry point for decks focused on enchantment synergy. The card’s primary ability revolves around the Constellation mechanic. This triggers whenever Underworld Coinsmith or any other enchantment you control enters the battlefield, allowing you to gain 1 life for each such event. This makes the card particularly effective in decks that consistently put enchantments onto the field. Additionally, the card offers a flexible activated ability: by paying one life and casting {W}{B}, you can force each opponent to lose 1 life. This provides a modest form of direct damage that scales with your life gain strategy. As part of the Commander 2015 expansion, Underworld Coinsmith supports the multiplayer format’s emphasis on board presence and resource management. The card's Constellation ability triggers whenever this creature or another enchantment you control enters, allowing you to gain 1 life. The flavor text references coins of the Underworld shaped from clay funerary masks, adding thematic depth to its role as a clerical figure in the game’s lore. This card is part of the Commander 2015 set and features a mana cost of {W}{B}.
