If the cards are genuine, something about which I am not certain, the markings may very well negatively impact their value. Most collectors prefer cards without random markings, everything else being equal.

In a very small number of cases, specific markings have increased the value of a card. The most obvious example of this would be when the player pictured has autographed the card. Other examples include "back stamp" markings from particular (well known) collectors.

If you can, please post clear pictures of your cards. I suggest, at minimum, three pictures of each T206 card:
  1. Front of card
  2. Closeup of the player's name (from the card front)
  3. Back of card
Collectively, Net54 members are exceptionally skilled at authenticating T206 cards. They will be able to tell you if you've posted images of genuine examples. That would be a logical first step in estimating value.
