Agreed, looks a regular card that's faded. ------------------------------- David Hayden

Definitely not faded. Coloring is the issue.

Yes, definitely a coloring issue. I just compared it to mine and it looks like that one missed some or all of the magenta (in the 4-color process). Just a printing flaw.

I opened the full-size image. I don't see any yellow ink on the card.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

I purchased a Mike Schmidt card just like this on ebay for $5.00. Holding it, I can't see any yellow coloring. the card looks cool with the blue and white border.
