If you’re going to buy a raw Gretzky rookie make sure you have buyer protection or that you get to examine in person. If you get to see it in person grab some other cards from the same set to compare it with.

This particular card looks pretty fake per reasons others have already mentioned (yellow dot and edges)
This is fake.
Definitely fake.
O-PEE-CHE has the yellow dot on the shoulder. This card is fake
Fake
Looks like a reprint. There’s no yellow dot on the jersey and the edges are too clean cut
Is the yellow dot only on the OPC version and not the Topps?
From what I remember the OPC is the only one with the dot
That’s what I remember as well. Is there anything glaring to notice for authenticity on the Topps version?

Fake. No dot on an OPC.
I don’t see a yellow dot on the shoulder and it’s an o-pee-chee so I think it’s fake.
Fake
Ooooh definitely fake
Fake
Sorry fake should have a yellow dot on his shoulder if it’s opc
Fake
The clear tell is the edges. OPC edges should look like hell on this card due to the way they were cut, Topps edges can be clean.
It’s real but reprint
