The suit of Cups is one of the four card suits used in Latin-suited playing cards alongside Coins, Swords and Batons. These suits are used in Spanish, Italian and some tarot card packs. CharacteristicsIn Spain, the suit of Cups is known as copas and the court cards are known as the Rey (King), Caballo (Knight or Cavalier) and Sota (Knave or Valet). The Spanish play with packs of 40 or 48 cards. There are no Tens and, in the shorter pack, the Nines and Eights are also dropped. Thus the suit of Cups ranks: R C S (9 8) 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. In Italy the suit is known as coppe and the corresponding court cards are the Re, Cavallo and Fante. Either 40 or 52-card packs are used. In the shorter packs, the Tens, Nines and Eights are removed. Card ranking is thus: R C F (10 9 8) 7 6 5 4 3 2 1.{{sfn|Parlett|2008|p=xv}} The suit of Cups corresponds to the suit of Hearts in French and German packs and the suit of Roses in Swiss playing cards.[1]. In French packs of this type, the suit is called coupe ("Cups"). The picture cards are Valet (Page), Chevalier (Horseman or Knight), Reine (Queen), and Roi (King). It was later replaced by the suit of Spades. In German-suited packs the suit is represented by Herz ("Hearts").{{sfn|Parlett|2008|p=xv}} The suit of Goblets, also known as cups, is one of several suits of some tarot packs used in cartomancy.
