Default Seems fake to me

My humble opinion is that this is probably not authentic.

The main red flag for me is the general blurriness and pixelation of the text on the back when using the zoom feature of the Ebay listing.

When comparing it to the back texts of the Chicles in my collection (I don't have a Nagurski) using a magnifying glass to try to replicate the same scale, the text on the ones I have are much crisper and cleaner.

The blurriness is probably just a shaky hand, and there's always the chance the pixelation is the result of a low resolution scan, but there is enough doubt and uncertainty on this one that I would never feel comfortable owning it, even if I got it at a very cheap price. I would be haunted by the question of whether it was authentic or not....
