I recently purchased someone's collection and I've been selling most all the cards on ebay the last few days. I've had some questions about this card being original or reprint. I have no clue. Anyone know the difference or know what to look for?? Here are the scans of the card.... Any help is appreciated!!

    To be honest, if it was a large collection and all the cards are authentic I wouldn't doubt it's authenticity... I've personally never seen the card before so I can't help you there.

    LOL, oh boy, a Crunch n Munch Jordan is a bad subject. I got one in a trade at a card show, maybe 6 years ago? I think the retail was $150 or $200.

    I'm almost 100% sure it's counterfeit.

    -1st It's 1986. I don't think they made authentic Crunch n munch cards in 1986.

    -2nd. The "Star 86" at the top is a different font than the real one. Yours is darker, and fills up more of the corner.

    -3rd. The "Crunch n munch" in the lower left corner is a different font and color than the real one.

    -4th. The card is a dimmer yellow than the real one (I think yours is real).

    -5th. I think the card stock and overall look is too dull.

    Hmm I see, I wonder if I'm making a mistake by just auctioning it off or if I should pull the auction and send it to get authenticated...

    Pull the auction and get it authenticated imo. Not graded, just authenticed.

    This one just finished at $51 and the seller stated that he didn't know if it was authentic or reprint..

    CDsNuts knows quite about the Star issues if I remember correctly. Try dropping Lee a pm and maybe he can help.

    Don't you guys know I don't like helping people?

    For what it's worth I'm pretty sure the card is legit, but probably not worth authenticating due to the condition. It's probably in the BGS 5-6 neighborhood and I can't see it selling for much more in a slab than raw. I'd put it up with an $80 bin/obo and see if I can squeeze $65 out of it.

    Definitely a big thanks for the help guys! I think I'm just gonna let the auction do its thing and see what happens. Thanks again.
