It does look off. I say bust it out of its holder (the holder obviously doesn't add any value) and provide us with a better image, front and back, so we can better judge the card.

Yeah when he brings the card over to me tomorrow I was planning on busting it out of the case to check the print and all that on it so I’ll post some more up then as well. Like I said I’m leaning towards fake as well but wanted to see what the masses thought so to speak. Again much appreciated for the feedback

That one has the black dot of death on the upper right border. Definitely fake.

As for the OPs card, I have to say fake as well. The white at the corners shows the actual paper stock color under the printed on aged color. Fake too.
