Default Was this W-517 a Fake?

Posted By: dennis

i got the cards and i could not see any dot pattern in the borders. there is wear that did not show up in the sellers scans. the borders are not aged like some 517's and are off white and not yellowed. they have a grey cardboard back. the cards have a dot pattern in the # area (but i think all the 517s do).the surrounding line does not have a dot pattern and is solid. my mag glass is not very strong so i assume if i see dot pattern on the card i would also see this pattern in the borders if they are fake? it appears the seller left some $$ on the table with no return policy/low feedback/bad scans. i have to assume they are real and the ones scg graded were from the same batch. if i can get my scanner working i can do a large scan.
