Ummm I am no expert compared to everyone else here, but even I see some glaring things wrong with this one. Wonder what his reserve is?

Donny, that is a great listing for folks to look at to see why it is a reprint.

Front font is too black, too bold. Corners look wrong. Back is wrong color. Back print is too bold. That scan would make a nice one to help folks learn to distinguish real from not real.

Frank,

Yes, this one is obvious. Back color wrong. No factory number, state, district on back. Corners are too evenly rounded... almost made like they were made to be rounded like that rather than through natural wear. etc. etc.

This one was just so blatantly wrong that it caught my eye as humorous...or sad.

Hard to tell from the scan, but it appears that the black border separating the image from the white borders is missing, as well.

Guys, I do not get to this board as much as I would like to but if you could email me these blatant junkers when you see them, I will report them. Thanks r337man@yahoo.com

I saw this yesterday afternoon & emailed the seller. I expected no reply but got one today saying he had ended the auction to have it checked out. He seems to be an honest seller & told me he had not seen many t206s before.

Either seller ended it before my report or..... more likely... the coincidence of me having any pull whatsoever has ended. I vote for choice B.
