Default 33G ruth (Any chances it is real)?

I was just sent these images of a 33G ruth in a junk grading company holder. Edges look filed down to make look real. Any thoughts?
Thanks, Jeff W

That looks like one of those DIY empty slabs you can buy on Ebay.

I think as a reprint (which it is).........that it is severely overgraded! Nice file job as it is missing chunks in some areas. Those mint corners and edges presented a problem for him that only a file could screw up! hahahahahhahahah

Peace, Mike

not even close. Though not a bad back for a reprint/counterfeit.

Color is off on front, artificial wear, particularly along the edges. I agree with Scott, the back is a pretty good attempt. Pass on it.

No bleedthrough; that's very common for this card because of the darkness of the red ink on the front.

The back almost looks good but you can see white on the edges of the borders. That isn't usually a good sign....

#1 The front image looks fake

#2 the white on the edges of the back

#3 the cut on the front looks weird
