Jordan Star 101 Real or Fake?

Not sure if the is a fake or just poorly off center and real. Thanks for any info

Not close. Fake

Thank you. Figured some folks on here would have better knowledge than me. Only one I've seen in person is my Chrome Jordan reprint from Topps. My gut told me that but wanted to make sure. The seller has it at less than what an authentic goes for in a slab and the image is blurry on the star and his name.

Kind of looks like the legit topps release in 96. https://www.ebay.com/itm/40433037231...Bk9SR-juh-qCYw Got a picture of the back?

No real star card has that thick/even of bordering around it. Plus the top looks crooked as well. Run away.

Doesn’t have the topps reprint statement on the back so it rules that out.

Yuppers. I was looking for that when I first saw it. Plus I think the text on the front with name is way too blurry when rest of the image seems crisp.

Another thing is the seller has a lot of graded cards so why if it was real they wouldn't take the chance of having it graded or at least authentic. Rest of the condition looks good such as corners and edges so another gut reaction

of course it's not an original and doesn't even look like the later Topps reprint given the slant cut

also missing that fish-eye on white boy
