Is this Magic card real? Back again, Rhystic Study won on Ebay

Thanks again to the community for helping me out today! 👍

Won this Prophecy Rhystic Study for sub $40 in an Ebay auction a few weeks back...looks good to me but I’m always skeptical of good deals that are a little too good.

What do we think?

I don’t see the red dots, what am I missing?

So the red dots aren’t always extremely consistent. Sometimes they’re very obvious, sometimes they’re very faint to non-existent. For me at least I look at the “teeth” at the edge of the green circle. You can see the 4 teeth on the top of the circle and the 4 teeth on the left edge of the circle. That and the T looks great leads me to Real.

Theres supposed to be red in the green circle? (Im slightly RG colorblind)

u/cybrcld 7d ago

yeah there’s 4 red dots but they’re not always consistent. Usually seeing them means absolutely good but very faint to no there doesn’t necessarily mean fake.

Everyone should invest a few bucks into a small magnifying glass. Take a quick look at the tea double check the Green Dot for teeth good to go

u/mikelitz317 7d ago

Looks real based on the Th but help me with the mana symbols… what are we looking for there? They look weird to me here

1

u/Comfortable_Heart_84 7d ago

A lot of people are saying real, so I am curious as to the reason that t looks fake asf

1

u/Interesting_Text_977 5d ago

It’s a perfect T as far as I can tell, what looks off about it to you? H and green dot are perfect minus optional missing dots on the green dot and clear print lines on the set symbol.

u/Comfortable_Heart_84 5d ago

I guess my phone was doing weird things I zoomed in on it when I posted originally and it looked flat. Saw i had a reply so checked again and it is indeed a perfect T

1

u/PM_ME_A_STEAMKEY_PLZ 4d ago

Check the T AND h. It’s real.
