Shiny T206 Card Legit???
Looking for some thoughts on this T206 Danny Murphy batting card I recently had delivered from a reputable dealer. Pic of card attached. I have been collecting T206 cards for over 3 years (finished my 518 set end of last year) and have been upgrading some of the beaters I have in my set. 3 years makes me still a baby with this set, but I have never seen this before. When I pulled the card out of the card saver it had a "film" feeling to it...almost like it is laminated, but it is not. I immediately thought it was a fake as I have not felt anything like that before, but I did take my loop to the card and it does have the typical dot printing...maybe since most of my cards fall into the 2 / Good category I haven't experienced a card with this "sheen" before...I have no doubt that after you guys weigh in and determine it is a fake, that the dealer would have no problem taking the card back.
I will say this, the card I'm getting rid of seems to have a bit of the same sheen on it as well...maybe this particular card inherently has this issue???
Let me know your thoughts.
