How to detect a reglossed card - w/ examples
Posted By: leon
Thanks again Kevin. I have always said that the uneven, natural gloss of a vintage card would be the most difficult thing to replicate. I have only seen a few of the Babe Ruth Candy cards where it was difficult to tell immediately of fraudulent activity. Generallly that "smooth" feel is what I look for. I was at lunch last week with Texas Ted and Rich K and Ted brought a box of vintage cards he had just bought. Two of the T206's were obvious fakes as I could tell immediately from rubbing the gloss through my fingers. The rest of the T206's he brought were nice, real cards. Ted knew but he just wanted a 2nd opinion...which I was happy to give. They were easy to tell.... best regards
