The card looked legit and did not show any signs of bleaching. (For what it's worth, it's harder to see bleach with UV without being in a dark room, but it still possible to see signs.)

I did take pictures, but they were just with a point-and-shoot, so I'll look into posting them when I'm home (although I don't think they turned out great).

As a side note, here are a couple of the keychain UV lights and UV loupe I carry around at shows:
