Is there a way to distinguish the base cards from these 2 sets or are they exactly the same?

Thank you!

For all intents and purposes they are the same.

I have been told the European ones are shinier/glossier but have not been able to tell the difference.

With series 1 it’s nearly impossible to tell the difference. Series 2 the card numbering is different because they added a sub set of team logo cards.
