The artificial staining on the back tells me they are 100% fake. I bought one of these in 2004 that had the same staining ( artificial aging) and it was fake. I would stay away from these.

The front images are blurry. Makes it hard to determine. This might be by design? I smell rotten eggs.

I would stay away.

This series was the most popular to fake back in the 90s. Many collectors and dealers got burned on them. I know of one dealer in Florida who took a hit on this.

When a seller says "I'm not an expert" and a buzz word like "appear" and then you see they were turned down by a grading company, then to me it seems a risky buy.

I know PSA, and SGC won't grade them due to the prevalence of really good fakes and they honestly don't want to stake a reputation on them. Not sure about BVG, but I have not seen a BVG graded copy.
