Help with a “unique” T205.

[drcy]

It's missing the gold, and perhaps the design is the remnants. It's known that underneath the gold it was printed yellow.

A couple of other board members have T205s without the gold. Here's my Paskert.

I haven't seen one with the pattern like yours - it looks like maybe the gold only stuck a little bit for some reason.

I had a wild thought that maybe the gold was printed on in a pattern for some other gold-border card type, like this T43 bird card, but I haven't found a good match for the pattern on your card.

It's a very cool card.

Excellent, and good idea! Is your 205 factory cut? Because it looks so, and I thought the yellow border ones were all scrap.

In hand, Paskert looks hand-cut or trimmed on at least the left edge.
