It's not fake. The scan is super bright, but that helps to show the dot pattern that you'll see with every real T206. Follow the lines on both the top and bottom borders: they're wavy. Someone got ahold of this card when it had slightly bigger borders and did some poor surgery on it.

McGraw link. Putting aside the card for now, look at how that description screams badness: "estate find"... "my husband" (deceased, incapacitated, derelict, or something else)... "this card is GUARANTEED AUTHENTIC" (crazy number of exclamation points following)... "Perfect card for someone to have graded" (just not her).

Don't pay $500 for that. It's going to end in tears.
