The Michael Jordan 1986-87 Fleer Rookie card is one of the most forged cards on today's market. Below are the ways that you can spot a fake. Remember that the only way to be 100% sure its real is if you buy one that is graded and/or certified.
Above, the genuine logo shows the white of each of the bull's eyes. On the right eye on the fake below it is almost filled in.
The fake "Fleer Premier" logo above is a poor copy of the genuine logo below.
The above photo shows the small print dots filling in the white area of Jordan's name, team and position on a fake. The photo below shows the same area on a real copy, showing the clean white text.
If the card is in hand and you are trying to determine if it is a reprint or not look on the back of the card for the copyright date information. It should tell you the year of the card there. Also, reprints may have a glossy, shiny, dark rich color and feel to it because it is new. Usually a reprint will have a glossy back, where originals don't. If the card is on the internet try and compare it to one that has been graded/certified. Look at the colors. Lighter colors will mean its an original. If you plan to buy a Jordan rookie over the internet the best way to know its the real thing is to find one graded and/or certified.
