Hey guys,

Ran across this on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Must-have-Golde ... 19d6acf813" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Looks like the seller has a few more... All misprints? Seems like a scam, can anyone confirm or tell us that this is really possible?

Cheers,
Aron

It seems he has legit decks listed, as far as I can see... I have never heard about blank GN cards thought

His response:

"I've worked in the gaming business for over 40 years in Las Vegas. While working in the pit, we always check the decks of cards before they go on the table...very rarely, but on occasion the decks are found to have a single card in it that was blank with no value on it. These were normally discarded, but I as a collector of gaming oddities would not dispose of them, but would keep them for my collection. These are definitely orignal and authentic."

Sounds legit to me.

Were printing plates used at this time? If so I don't see how it's possible for all of the face plated to print all but 1 card. It just doesn't make any sense.....
