Any ideas on how much this card is worth?

Hey guys, I've been looking into selling my old pokemon card collection and there's one card I can't find online. It's a Porygon 39/102 rare from I think the first edition of cards, but I have pictures below so you can see. The special thing about this though is the fact it is really shiny in a unique way. But again you can see this below. As I'm new I can't post images here but here's a link to the gallery.

It's a counterfeit/sticker, so that's why you can't find anything about it online. I had a Grimer just like it that started peeling and I realized it could be used as a sticker. If you measure it against your other cards, you'll notice it's slightly smaller and the top and bottom borders are both way too thick.

Alright, thanks for your help. I was wondering whether or not I was going crazy or was there just nothing online about it. Was this kind of stuff common?

There are so many kinds of old fake cards. Heck I even got "magic baby" pokemon cards from an old classmate, I was really wondering how he got to those cards, back in the day I thought they are real.
As for the stickers, probably, I think I have some of those as well.
