Montiel Cubans
Yes, these are listed in the Standard Catalog.
VERY tough to find in high grade condition (my Joe DiMaggio is SGC 3.5, which I think is the highest graded). Most of them were meant to pasted into some kind of album, which means a lot of the backs are damaged when they took them out. They come with yellow or orange borders (I personally have seen more yellows than oranges, so I am not sure if orange is more rare maybe?), and the paper stock is kind of thin.
I have never seen a fake out there, but I am sure wherever there is a high dollar card, there is someone who will make a counterfeit.
