what the heck is this card?

Looks like a 1986 Donruss Clemens, but has "Special Olympics Nevada 1 of 1" in gold foil on it with S.O. logo. Also has COA from Masterpiece Collectibles saying it's a 1/1, blah blah blah. Sealed in holder with Masterpiece logo sticker.

Worth something? Haven't a clue. Here's a scan:

It's simply a 1986 Donruss card of Roger Clemens that someone bought, and then stamped it on the front and attached a new back to it.

IMHO, worthless!...

Bizarre.

Collectables is spelled two different ways on the back. I like the 85 AND 86 Donruss Highlights set. The 86 set has a cool Canseco card and a great Mantle card too.

Its for a good cause, right? Special Olympics?

oh my. that's a good catch. in the company's name, no less. hillarious.

Well, the card was made by somebody involved in the Special Olympics

So if you sent this in for grading, would it be considered altered stock or would it get a MK qualifier?

I have sent in cards that had gold super bowl show stamps on them and PSA totally ignored the stamps. On the flip the card is only acknowledged as the base card.

Sure thing.

In reality they are right in doing so because the cards were in fact regular base cards that were stamped at a super bowl show.

If the special olympic card did not have the fake back on it, they would most likely do the same thing. With the fake back on it, I'm 99% sure they won't grade it.

This looks like a Dave Byer special.

I'm keeping score, that's two digs. Keep it up, it will make it that much more satisfying come October 10th.
