Default Piedmont Overback?

Posted By: JimB

If it is a HOF, I imagine somebody was trying to increase the value by putting an Old Mill back on it. It is more common to see that done with even tougher backs like Drum and Uzit. It is a shame because it is easy to detect and the scammers destroy perfectly good Drum and Uzit backs in the process. In the case of the card mentioned, it is an alteration gone bad and decreased the value of the card.

Edited to add: I did not realize it was Piedmont over Old Mill. I thought it was the other way around. That does not make sense.
