Topic: Possible Fake?

This card is odd. At first you'd call it an obvious fake because it shouldn't exist:

  • Rathi Dragon

  • Black Bordered

  • Foil

  • 9th Edition Logo

But since I can easily find images of 9th Edition black border Rathi Dragon (non foil), and really why fake a Rathi Dragon from 9th? So I figured I'd take a closer look.:

  • I compared the back with a real card, and I spotted no differences... PASS

  • I looked at the black border through magnifying glass for evidence of printing... PASS

  • I shone a light through the card, and it was translucent... PASS

  • I bend it over end to end to test card stock... PASS

I'm not going to tear it in half tongue

Soooo, I can't find clear evidence of it being a fake, nor when and where this was supposed to be released. Do you guys know where it came from?

Re: Possible Fake?

Foils from white bordered sets have black borders.

Re: Possible Fake?

hes right, if the regular set is white bordered, the foils in that set are black bordered. It is more than likely legit.
