I thought there are red, blue and brown but I found this
http://www.acekingplayingcards.com/servlet/the-362/4-NEW-decks-Bee/Detail

Is the authentic black wynn exist?
Or is this a fake? But this is Ace king's shop so it shouldn't be the fake?

Anyone knows?

The Wynn|Encore Black Wynn are available at Wynn/Encore gift shops.

A part of my Wynns, you may see "Wynn|Encore" in the pic-3.

I just checked for them at ebay and I found this 2.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/BLACK-Wynn-Encore-Vegas-Casino-Bee-Playing-Cards-NEW-/260778239358?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cb798257e#ht_500wt_1202

http://www.ebay.com/itm/WYNN-ENCORE-BLACK-Bee-Playing-Cards-NEW-Sealed-UNC-Las-Vegas-NOT-BROWN-but-NICE-/320755542260?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4aae8528f4#ht_5622wt_1235

The back of the cards is diamond back, right?

How are they handle?

I couldn't speak from experience, but they're casino-quality Bees - how bad could they possibly be?

There are three other Bee/Wynn decks.  These diamond-back Bees are an older model no longer in use.  There's the brown Wynn's that T11 were selling, and they also come in red and purple - those I believe are the current issue used on the tables today.

There was another topic on this subject recently - I pointed that person to the1eyedjack.com since he has all the Wynn's except for the black ones, which never saw table use and as far as I know were simply sold in the gift shops.  He's got the diamond-backs without the black one for $15 each, and I think $25 each for the current-issue red and purple.

Digipunk posted while I was typing this - he seems to have all the bases covered on the deck backs and fronts!

It's enough, but you may still consider the #1 & #2, I like Jumbo Index too.
 
The one-way back of Wynn|Encore deck is absurd, BUT... it looks elegant if you don't open it.

Dang that does look good!  8) How rare is the black deck in comparison to the T11 Brown Wynns?

Please refer to the 2nd pic: http://www.ebay.com/itm/270778839489
The logo and script (signature) versions can be easily identified from the back of the boxes.

The blog author is a famous card/coin collector here, his pics have murdered the pockets of lots of newbies. Theoretically the Black should be rarer than the Brown at this moment. However, the Brown is OOP and the Black might be produced again and show up in their gift shops. So far as I know, there were 2 runs in 2009 (remember what happened in the year? the stickers on the Black decks have 2 different colors: blue & black), and there seemed to be the 3rd run sometime in 2011 (if I remember right and the information was correct). We don't know whether there will be other runs in the future.

Yeah, it looks really cool in the box.

About the rarity, since not many people know this deck, the price isnt that overhype. Its 29.95$ at ebay for buy it now. So the brown wynn is more rare.

Anyway the Brown is out of print, that is fact. If I could only choose one between them, I choose the Brown without doubt (not to mention taking into consideration the silly back of the Black). BIN $29.9 is acceptable, they were $30-40 in 2010.

Okay thanks for clarifying! People often talk of the Brown Wynns but the Black deck often does get much attention so it peaked my interest. That is a pretty sweet collection Digi, lots of Wynns!

I like Wynns and this is a part of all the Wynns I own... there are still Red and Violet Wynns, the wood case is not large enough. It is a wine case obviously (Sapporo Wine), I got it from auctions (I don't drink any wine).

My card collecting was not started early enough, I could not get these Wynns with beautiful prices, but fortunately still lower than their current market values. When you have Brown+Red+Violet with both Standard/Jumbo Indexes, you can not but consider the Black Wynn|Encode decks or the script (signature) versions.
 
I got many Blades and sold out all of them to my friends, but I won't do likewise to these Wynn decks  :P
