not to sound cruel, but if you have to ask if this one is real, then you really do need to do some homework on t206s.

I'm not ASKING if its for real, obviously its a fake. Any time you want to go head to head on T206 let me know.

Chill out Mark, there is an unwritten rule not to post T206 Wagner stuff unless it is graded. It got really old every time a fake would come up and someone would have to post a thread about it. That is why you got the reaction you did. If knowledge of the T206s you would brush these off as another sap trying to make a quick buck.

If you were joking about it, put a smiley behind it. They help to differentiate between a joke and being series.

As my brother pointed out, without some indication that you are joking, there is no way to tell if you are or not. I took you at your word and assumed you were clueless. There are enough noobs here that can't tell a real t206 from a fake that it's safe to assume that an unknown person asking the question you did does not know or they wouldn't be asking.

It's fake? But he got it DNA tested. I wonder if it has Honus' DNA or the DNA of the person who took a crap on it to make it seem old.

Shift button and hit the "0" (zero)

Wallah!
