So some of us do magic and some of us don't but what I want to know what your favorite gaff card is. Personally I like how the white vision deck has a gaff that has one side white and one side the black of the design, I have a trick that uses it.
Do you guys even read this? Like I could have the meaning of life here and I doubt you would know it.

Does the gaff card have to come from a deck of cards or can it come from a magic effect?

I would rather you chose one that actually came from a deck, but go ahead and list one if it comes from a trick as well if you would like.

My favorite is a lot like yours, actually.  The Ghost gaff deck comes with dual-color double-backers.  I use the ones for the red and blue Rider Back decks the most for "sign-a-card" tricks using a prediction card.  I just wish E's other gaff decks had those cards...  I think the Black Tiger gaff has it but I'm not sure - it's been a while.

I love the moving pips gaff cards. But it would not be possible to incorporate it into a standard(for those who know how it works would understand why). For me anything that involves moving the ink on the cards are awesome.

I like the Royal flush to Blackjack gaff cards in the arcane gaff deck

Also the "sexy" queen of hearts from the ultragaff deck!

I really love decks that come with a double backer and a blank face card (like the first set of seasons playing cards).
How much bang for the buck you can get out of those cards is insane!
Okay you can make up your own blank face card by taking a piece of steel wool and rub of the ink of a red ace or any other card with
very little ink on it.
I know nothing fancy here,but the multiple uses of those 2 cards makes them the perfect standard gaffed cards.

so
1. Blank faced card
2. Double backed card
3. Ghost Gaff Deck The Dead Kings
4. Ultragaff Deck The Battery Card 
Currently waiting for those decks being released :
- Seasons [Primavera / Seronda]  / Aether [Vortex] / Bicycle [Actuators] / Mana [Oracle] / The Blue Crown - [Altruism] / Encarded [Tendril]
