T205 experts needed

Posted By: Damian Anderson

I recently bought several raw T205's from a very reputable dealer. He deals almost exclusively with raw cards and every card I have every bought from graded with PSA. As usual I didn't realize how little experience I had with T205's until the cards arrived today. If one of these has been recolored is it fairly obvious? The cards have spots were the irredences is blotchy(missing the gold flecking in spots). Is this common? I have another T205 that is low grade and I am fairly certain it has not been recolored and it exhibits simliarities in the irredence. I hit the cards with a black light and the borders appear a uniform dark brown. I absolutely suck at posting pictures and there is know way I can post one here that would be worth a darn for evaluation. If someone is willing to pm me I can send a picture to post. The edges of the cards are uniform and clean. The cards do exhibit some white chipping on borders and corners which would lead me to believe that if someone was going to recolor they would have covered the chipping. Unless they wanted to leave some to fool people. If someone does post my picture that all the cards exhibit more chipping and edge wear than this one. Excuse the spelling on irredesence I am too lazy to look it up. Please help.
