blank holo card ?!

[carlsberg]

Hi

My daughter bought a load of used cards from a friend and one of them has the standard pokemon blue & logo etc on side and on the other side it's the holo texture with nothing printed on it - just a whole blank holo - is this a fake ? or rare ? or just a junk card ?

thanks

ps I could probably take a pic of it if that helps

Take a picture for me, please, so that I may evaluate it better.​

I've heard of cards like these. They're extremely rare misprints. I would hold on to it. :)

here's the front and back of the card - the picture quality isn't great cos i took the pics with my laptop webcam

It looks like it was just a rare misprint. It's nothing big, really.​

That looks coooool ;D Keep hold of it :)

The saturation of the card back looks kind of fishy, but that could be due to the image quality. Do the backsides of your other (real) cards look like this?

I know some fakes (like Yu-Gi-Oh, for instance) that, when you peel the front of the card off (which you can't do with real cards), you are left with a shiny surface.

Also, since I can't tell by the pic, does the foil have a weird pattern on it? Weird foil patterns are a sure sign of a fake.

If it is real, which it's kind of hard for me to tell, then it's a pretty neat misprint. I'd hold onto it.: )

thanks for your replies :)

Nekoban - yes the saturation is caused by the webcam - the back of the card is exactly like all the others

It had occurred to me that maybe it was possible to peel off the picture - but from what you say that's not possible

The foil doesn't have a pattern - just the irridescence when the light shines on it - and it scratches very easily

Must be from one of the Delta Species sets, seeing as foil for all other sets had a pattern. Seems to be real to me.

cool! You certainly seem to know your stuff when it comes to Pokémon cards :)

many thanks to all of you for your help
