Hi guys.
I recently looked at my OLDDD pokemon card collection. I noticed maybe 4 out of 30 of my reverse holos have a thin strip on the top. I thought this could have been fading, or maybe PVC damage because the top of the card is where the sleeves open, but my Binder and sleeves are both PVC-FREE (I was also under the impression there needs to be direct contact for that damage to occur.) One has a strip on the bottom, so that theory is out the window.
I didn't pay this close attention to detail when I was younger. Could these have been manufacturer faults? I had them all in a box away from light. These are from the e-reader series by the way. I notice a few reverse foil cards have tiny white specks (only noticeable if you look very closely) All my regular cards and normal foil cards are flawless, I'm confused??? If it had to do with the way I stored my cards, wouldn't this have happened to all of the cards?
For clarification these "strips" are along the yellow border of the card.
