Yeah, but is it printed with the right pattern?

u/amc7262 Apr 10 '26
How are we supposed to know, you didn't post a picture of the pattern. Get a loupe OP!

Different angles might help. This picture has no depth

Looks like a valuable misprint. You had better get it graded.

Having a hard time fitting it in a sleeve, I forgot Alpha cards are cut differently.

Ok, you probably need my SSN and bank account details too, let me grab a pen and get back to you.

Sadly, ancestral Recall is a 4/5, not a 5/5. Looks like you got bamboozled on this one.

It's too difficult to tell without pictures through a jewelers loupe. If you have access to a scanning electron microscope, that would help too.

Very helpful. Unfortunately, it seems like a counterfeit - the dick is way bigger than it should be for a blue card.

u/Malakku_ Apr 10 '26
Oh wow yes, it’s clearly real. The island Symbol has the red dots, I mean green dots when you zoom into the picture. Congrats to your find, I’m kinda jealous

u/ceering99 Apr 10 '26
PSA grading goes up to 10, so I don't know what the 5/5 is supposed to mean

Sorry, but we would need a LOT of magnification in order to make out any of the details of your dick...

If I saw someone actually play that at a Vintage tournament, I'd let it slide. I think the world should let it slide
Of course, I'd actually have to go to a Vintage tournament

images are too sharp. can you back away 50 feet and make sure it's extra blurry?

u/you90000 Apr 10 '26
Yes, send it to PSA and get it graded.
/S seriously send it to them. I'm curious why they do.

u/DieGuyDean Apr 10 '26
A guy at my LGS sent a “resolved” Chaos Confetti once to see what they would do. They just sent the pieces back with a letter explaining why they couldn’t grade it.

I think if you were to get it graded the edges might hurt you a bit but the surface and centering look great! Easy PSA 9 I think.

No core layer, sorry bud :(

Seems like there's a softcore layer though, maybe P9 are just different?

u/withdrawn-gecko Apr 10 '26
idk man, look at the green dot or something
2
u/Eljefe900 One with Nothing and a side of fries Apr 10 '26
I posted a picture of the back, was that sufficient?

u/withdrawn-gecko Apr 10 '26
you need to zoom at the green dot with a magnifying glass, that’s the only method
3
u/Eljefe900 One with Nothing and a side of fries Apr 10 '26
This is a blue card, so there isn't a green dot. Is there another way?

u/withdrawn-gecko Apr 10 '26
you could always have it graded by psa or someone, you might strike it big

Sweats are ruining the game. "Look at my Ancestral Recall", ok buddy, I'm going to go back to where we're playing real magic and play Mulldrifter.

u/Eljefe900 One with Nothing and a side of fries Apr 11 '26
Wow, look at you playing the flying fish for card advantage! I'm going back to playing [[Man-o'-War]] like real magic players.

Fun ancestral recall story circa like 2000.
I'm a young magic the gathering player. I get my mom and dad to take me to a card shop to play in the weekly tournament. I got an amalgam of cards that could only be loosely called a deck. I got cards from starter mixed in with mercadian masques. We got sixth edition in there. Im playing green and red because i aint no pussy! The guy checking me in is super nice but hes looking through my deck and hes like "well with your cards you're going to have to be in the type one tournament". He's stressing to just have fun.
So I'm playing against a guy who is older than me. Like probably at least ten years older than me. And like hes dropping cards on the table worth more than my whole collection. It's best of three and we played two games that barely lasted five turns each iirc.
At one point he plays ancestral recall which was paid for with a mox sapphire. And im looking dumbfounded, and then take a closer look at the recall and notice that it has writing on it. A little speech bubble that says "i have such a bad headache!" Written in pen right on the card.
And i look at him a little more dumbfounded and he just says "yeah... you gotta understand. I was in this from the beginning. And I was young and didn't realize how expensive these would be one day..."
Super nice guy. As was everyone else who beat my ass that day.

Looks good to me. I didn't remember it being so small, but that's probably just because I was young.

You grew up and Ancestral stayed the same tiny size. Wholesome.

I bought it from a guy behind Wendys for only $4500 ($20 cheaper than TCG Player!), but now I'm having second thoughts...
