What kind of price tag would you fellas put on this?
Thanks |
'14 or '15?

is it even real is the question?

I assume the owner already knows the answer if it's not.

fake
fake

Thanks, fellas. I'm a memorabilia guy but even to my untrained eye, I suspected something was amiss:o
|
I was going to say $1.00 --- and save the price tag, just write it right on the card.
I hope this card being fake didn't cost you anything. |
Nope. Was posting this for a friend...

Looks like Joe has a dip in his right lip

I am personally trying to improve my ability in spotting fake pre-war cards, which I am not very skilled at right now.
I am not a CJ guy, but from reading this forum, it is my basic understanding that fake CJs can often be spotted by the white in the uniform not being the same as the border (since the card stock itself is used for the white color in the originals). This card, however, seems to my (again, admittedly unskilled) eye, to pass this most basic of tests on the right border (though the overall dirtiness may obviously cloud this). At the risk of embarrassing myself (probably not the first time), I was wondering if those of you who are more skilled at this, would explain (just very briefly) what tips this card off as an obvious fake? Is it the bad coloring / overall dirtiness/greyness? Not questioning your expertise or anything, rather I am just trying to learn from it! |
I would post a picture of mine but not sure how. Rob

Is that an ear ring?

"How much is my beater T206 Wagner worth?" The fact that it looks artificially aged by dirt, rounded corners, and "pin" holes adds to the likelihood of the card being a fake. Although the OP did not seem to be in it for the money, most of these posts are designed to pick up emails offering money for reprints. |

Send it out to be graded, then re-post it! If it is good, you'll have is all sending you emails.
