So I have a cardback and coin POTF Warok that I'm having a little play around with.

I don't collect POTF but have this in a drawer so getting it back to a point where a POTF collector would have as a place filler...

NO HARM HAS BEEN DONE TO THIS CARD

So he bubble is complete and not sliced but has pulled away where the figure at some point in the past has been removed.

There is original tape inside the bubble wher the weapon originally was

So I'm tidying up the tears under the bubble.

My question is, how can I tell if the coin is genuine?

I would like to get this piece back to a displayable point where another collector of POTF may want as a place filler.

Here are some pics of the card and of the coin

That looks good to me. Most repros I've encountered are Molded one side only and blank on the back, but check the weight for added peace of mind

Thanks bud, yes I had read re the blank side, but also read they did restrikes of the coins which were both sides, but thicker and weighed more.

Thanks for the response :D
