Thanks Kev,
I do believe that we both can see & understand that the "Process" takes its toll oN the Card and the evidence of the "Process" is left behind leaving the Card Damaged...

My Belief iS... that if I had your cards iN hand and the Mordecai along side of them I would be able to determine that the Mordecai iS "Real"(w/o any Card Surface/Layer damage).

I do follow along as to what Your conveying and I just have the notion that the proof iS & would be iN plain sight... iF the Cards were iN my hands(or yours!), the answer would be easy to determine. At this point... I Still Strongly see the Mordecai to be "True Scrap", as opposed to being "Worked"...To me, It Looks More Real than NoT!

I do humbly believe that the latest cards that you scanned, show me enough that I believe that I can tell that they have been "worked".

I do understand & respect both Yours & Leon's position/opinion oN the Mordecai Card. However, from what I know... The Dating of the Mordecai Slabbing, & from its scan(although one might say its really hard to see & tell!?), I still believe that its True to the "Scrap" Nature.

Thanks fir taking the time to share & discuss the issue.
And if I at All offended You iN Any Way...
"Please Forgive Me!?"
I Sometimes wear my emotions oN my Arm(so to speak), my passion is & remains towards the Hobby... I'm certain that the idea that it was "JimB's Card" that was iN question... & I'm sure that I went further than I should of, my emotions got the best of me!

"So I do Hope that You'll Forgive me!?"

Sincerely!

As Always...
