Now this card is IMO a great example of scam, er, scan manipulation. You don't get a flip like that from scanning. The flip is roached because of extensive UV light exposure, likely from fluorescent lighting. I've had the same thing happen with SGC flips on items displayed in my office. The card itself likely shows fading as well. But jack up the contrast and add intensity of color and flash to the scan and it boosts the red.
