You are going to pay more in grading costs and postage than the card is worth don't you think.

If possible a Piedmont 350 as well? I kept trying to look at mine (last night) when trying to judge and it was hard with the size differences (especially the spacing on the word subjects) between card and scan.

Can you scan front and back at hi-resolution? Say 1200 or even 2400 DPI.

Counterfeit. As suggested, it may be a skinned back. Rarely are the Elberfeld (W) not OC. Beginner collectors would be wise to invest in a black light, before investing in cards.
