A king or spade
Data from page 384
A standard deck of 52 cards (see Fig. 4) has four 13-card suits: diamonds, hearts, clubs, and spades. The diamonds and hearts are red, and the clubs and spades are black. Each 13-card suit contains cards numbered from 2 to 10, a jack, a queen, a king, and an ace. The number or letter on a card indicates its rank. So there are 13 ranks and 4 cards of each rank. The jack, queen, and king are called face cards. (The ace is not a face card.) Depending on the game, the ace may be counted as the lowest and/or the highest card in the suit. In traditional card games, a hand of cards is an unordered subset of the deck.
