When the corners on the actual cards wear, the color of the paper loss or wear stays close to the original color of the card. With the reprint the corners have been artificially rounded recently and haven't had time to fade so they look darker around the edges.

All of the backs of these particular reprints that I've seen are off center from top to bottom so look for that as a give away too.

Besides that, the colors on the fronts are just faded compared to the real deal with the grass area showing a lot more spottiness.
