Hey fa/tg/uys and ca/tg/irls found this on the ground after an Alberta winter. I don't know if it's fake, because it has the wrong rarity symbol.

Huh. Rotated it on my phone but whatever. Here's the dot matrix photo I was able to get. It seems legit with the lettering and it has a scratched foil sticker, maybe 5% of the sticker remains though. Thoughts?

It's unlikely to be a fake, most of the fakes are on older cards. They don't really bother with fake print runs on recent or new sets.

Looks like it might have been faded so badly that it went gold
Seems more likely than any alternatives

Calgary or Edmonton?
It's hard to diagnose these things over pictures on the internet, but I'd bet the rarity symbol being wrong is due to some light sun damage. Kozilek himself is also looking a little less green than he should be. This would probably be a lot easier to tell if the card itself wasn't so grey already. Compare it to a real rare from OotG and see if it's the right yellow.

That's a Near Mint, OP.
Sell it for millions.

I don't really think there's any reason to fake one of the newer eldrazi titans like him.

St. Albert, so slightly north of Edmonton

Awesome thanks for the feedback guys

I'm imagining the schlub that threw this out.
"Aww sweet, Kozilek! What? The rarity is wrong! Now it's worthless, everyone will think it's a fake!"
Here's a closer photo of the foil sticker but I think I found a problem guys

Fucking rotated it on my phone and it still appears horizontal.
So when I pushed it a bit near a point of separation it doesn't appear to have the blue paper
Don't mind the mess in the background

From this point, I'd say this is a real card.
I just recently disected a token out of boredom.

TOKENS DON'T HAVE THE SAME GLUE THAT REAL CARDS
SORRY FOR SCREAMING
>>46269257
Congrats OP, you found something so damaged it's literally worthless.
Why the fuck would it be fake? It's just damaged to the point where it doesn't matter.
>>46275208
A greatly distorted Great Distortion is pretty fun to own though

SORRY ANON, I ACTUALLY DIDN'T KNOW.
I APPLOAD YOU FOR BEING WELL VERSED IN THE WAY OF THE ACTUAL PAPER THE MAGIC CARDS ARE PRINTED ON.
I'M NOT EVEN MAD, THAT'S AMAZING.

Some phones describe the orientation of the photos you take with metadata, 4chan ignores this metadata.
