Article on card restoration

Posted By: Gilbert Maines

If a card owner improves the appearance of his card through skill so fine that the alteration can not be detected, then IMO the card is worthy of the higher grade it can attain. The same is true for totally reconstructed or constructed cards. If technology can not identify these from genuine originals, then no difference exists.

I don't like it, but there is nothing that can be done.

Can fakes really be made so good that they are not detectable? If so, a card's provenance becomes crucial.
