court card

Each suit would have had 13 cards, including three all-male court cards: the King, the Lieutenant, and the Second Lieutenant.

Just like in a regular deck of cards, each suit has face or court cards — usually called king, queen, page and knight.

The minor arcana is similar to a standard deck of playing cards, separated into four suits containing 10 numbered cards and four court cards.

There was one other student but I quickly ascertained that he was only at the meeting to get his court card signed.

If these four court cards be four knaves, the hand is below the average; if four kings, or two kings, two queens, and a knave, it is about the average.
