Recently was looking at {Captain Sisay} ftvL version and his printing was strange, I could see the dpi of the print.
When I did the blacklight test: the back of the card didnt not get a darker hue, instead it stayed lighter
So now I wonder for anyone with FTV:L is the foil process different for this, keep in mind I tested FTV 20 cards and they didn't have this same affect.
I got this from a trusted trader and so I prefer to resolve the issue in private, incase people wonder who it was.
Well it is not hard to fake a card.. Just costs a lot..
I have a FTV Sisay, what's the backlight test?
Black light. Hold one up to the card on front and back. Wotc ink will be a specific tint/color while other inks of say a 'fake' card will be different:)

Just my two cents, but that card is not worth faking...
I agree but ehh.. People faked one dollar bills.. Haha

That kind of thinking is why people will fake them ;) They can sell a few bulk fakes and make $20, then they just scored a little free money with moderately low risk involved.

Off topic but IMO ones are the best to fake. It's harder to make a million dollars, but who questions if it's fake? Ones don't feel like cloth because they are washed so much which is the biggest sign of a fake.
I've found that orange juice will occasionally do that cards.... I spilled some on a foils Rakdos cackler and got a similar effect
Bend test, if that fails rip it in half and look for the blue paper 😜
Haha!!!
Rip test always works

Just clarifying that all of this post is sarcasm or not, but doesn't the bend test not work with foils?

Foils will bend either way. It does not matter. If you give a foil card some time, it will eventually bend and curl and etc.
