The perforations by themselves made it an obvious reprint. All the others things wrong about it (cardstock, erasure over REPRINT, wear, coloration, print quality) would only take an extra few seconds for most experts to deem it fake, no matter whether it was slabbed or not.

Should have kept it or auctioned it off. I bet there would have been a few people here willing to put up some cash for it. I'd have paid a hundred for it easy!

Ding, ding, ding.

Honestly, how many people here would have bid on it? I know I would have made a spirited attempt to get it.

I think about 5 people in this thread showed public interest. I'm sure there were at least 10 more waiting in the wings.

Next up is that reprint Tip Top 😊

I did more than show interest in the thread. I would have also been part of some spirited bidding if it was in the BST auction section.

I sold all my slabbed cards but a few "special" slabbed cards in the last year. By special I mean I have 2 Beckett test slabs from before they ever graded a card for the public, Special event slabs that they come slabbed(no grade), a couple PSA test slabs, and a PSA mistake(don't everyone have one of those).LOL
