Default Cards are here! Fakes?

Posted By: PC

Dustin -- on the T206s, these are the following "tells":

(1) the name/team font on the front of each of those cards is wrong (compare side-by-side with a real T206, and you'll see the differences);

(2) on the backs, none of the cards has a factory designation (a factory state/number appears in very small print near the bottom of each real T206); and

(3) the Sweet Caporal back is blue -- all real Sweet Caporal backs are red; and

(4) the Old Mill back may also be the wrong color (it looks blue, but hard to tell from the scan) -- the print on Old Mill backs is never blue (should be black or, for Southern League Old Mills, black or brown).
