The cards show their number and suit using pictures of the suit symbols grouped in patterns to show the number of the card as well as the number being written on the card as well. Jacks, Queens, and Kings are known as "Picture Cards" because they instead have a picture of a Prince, Queen, or King respectively as well as the letter J, Q, or K.
The number 1 card is known as an "Ace" and has the letter "A" instead of it's number.
