If you look at the scan of the back of the Wagner card that is offered for sale, you'll see that the bottom has some severe rubs that remove most of the printed text. This would be where the "Factory" line of info would be. It does show the first letter of that line, which is a "T", not an "F".

On the back of a Wagner reprint licensed through the Wagner estate, with a facsimile Piedmont back, the first line there at the bottom starts with, wait for it... a "T". On those reprints it reads "TM/C 1995 THE WAGNER ESTATE, CMG"


Seems to me that after that instantaneously initial impression that it's a fake, immediately reaffirmed after seeing the back; and as if that isn't enough, for anyone still thinking that it just might be real... it isn't. I guess he shoulda rubbed some more on that line of print near the bottom of the back.

So, had it been real, what would it cost to get that graded by PSA? Surely not that 200k he mentions.
