While on a vintage hockey card site on face book, someone posted a RC of Mario that was quickly thought/proven to be fake so I posted and asked about mine as it is raw and was purchased raw.
I posted pics of the card, front and back, as well as a zoomed in scan of the Penguin but according the person who was offering help, he said the zoomed in pic wasn't good enough? I've read a few articles and "I think" mine is good but I'd really like to know for sure if anyone here can tell me that, if possible? In all honesty, when I purchased this card, naively, Mario's weren't very expensive so I didn't think anyone had faked any. Dumb, I know. ![]() My eyes aren't as good as they once were, even with glasses on but I do need to acquire a loupe, no doubt about it.

If you don't get a loupe soon, I'm going to send a carrier pigeon to Canada with one (and instructions for him to peck you mercilessly)

I would need higher res scans to tell for sure. But I think it's good.

Looks good, from what I can see.
If you have a high-res scan, PM me and I'll give you my email address. I can take a close look at the fine details for you.

I'm not trying to influence your opinion, but after looking at these new scans, and comparing to what I seen in an article yesterday, I am 99.9% sure my Mario is good. https://forums.collectors.com/discus...ux-rookie-pics

I'm no expert, but I was thinking it looked good myself.
Looks to be in nice shape too. I would get it graded with the way the prices have been going. |

![]() Condition wise, it is in great shape but the tilt/OC part of it would definitely hurt it when it came to a solid high grade. Guessing, I'd put it in the 6-7 range but I may be overrating it? A slightly better scan which shows the tilt/OC better.

I would put it at Ex-Mt with the centering and cut. It could do better if youre willing to accept qualifiers
