What is the difference between a real yu-gi-oh card and a fake one?
Yu-Gi-Oh cards are manufactured by Upper Deck, longtime fabricator of baseball cards. Game cards are printed on high-quality cardstock using premium ink, and have a hologram embossed on the bottom-right. The hologram is the most difficult to duplicate and is the clearest giveaway. Some other, more subtle signs:
- The typefaces used in Yu-Gi-Oh are expensive and have been modified. Fake cards may not reproduce the fonts exactly.
- Yu-Gi-Oh cards, including holographic ones, have a semigloss finish. Fakes may have a shinier or matter finish.
- The high-quality cardstock used in game cards resists creasing when bent up to ninety degrees from the short sides. Fakes will fold almost immediately.
- Real cards, when ripped, have a black ribbon running through the center. Fakes usually don't.
- Holographic cards use either holofoil or fine prismatic foil. If the holographic card has a starburst pattern, large blocks of hologram, spirals, stars, or other details, it's a fake. Only the card art shows hologram foil, not the text or border. The ink almost never flakes off of the foil.
- Fakes may seem overly dark, blurry, washed-out, or have artifacts from the scanning process.
- Know which cards are holographic and which aren't. Yu-Gi-Oh cards are generally not printed in both holographic and standard versions.
Remember, if you have any doubt that the card is authentic, don't buy it. Purchase cards only in sealed packs, sealed decks, or from reputable dealers. Always closely examine cards before proceeding in trades.

Why are First Edition yu-gi-oh cards more expensive than Unlimited Edition cards?
The First Edition cards are more expensive because there are fewer of them. They only make one First Edition release and after that it's all unlimited. Fewer copies of something makes it more rare and hence, more valuable.
Solution
First Edition are somewhat more expensive because you get a little extra writing on the cards. Even from the original country Japan, they don't use 1st Edition cards because theirs no such thing. Either that or the cards I got were just Unlimited Edition Japanese cards anyway.

Baseball Cards. It all began with the images of baseball players on cards sold with tobacco products in the 1880s through WWII when the baseball card industry took on a life of its own with the increasing popularity of the cards as collectibles. The first baseball cards were issued over 130 years ago, and the answer to this question will be debated over the next 130 years. One of the cards under debate as the first player to appear on a baseball card is Dave Birdsall "The Old Man" of the Unions of Morisannia ball club (1866-1870). Dave Birdsall later became a member of the Cincinnati Red Stockings the first professional baseball team in 1869, and a card picturing this team is another baseball card that has been given credit as the first.
