<Question> About 2003 Timeless Treasure Material Ink Patch Auto

[bluejays19921993]

Hi,
I have just bought 2003 Timeless Treasure Material Ink Patch Auto of Roberto Alomar as attached. As you can see, it has beautiful patch, however, looking at other "Material Ink" cards of other players, most of them have just piece of jersey, rather than patch. It seems patch are for "Prime Ink" just like Gary Carter as attached

Is my Alomar some kind of unusual card or some "Material Ink" cards DO have patch?

I am doubting people will attach fake patches for these cards.

If you have any informations, please let me know!

Regards,

During Donruss/Leaf/Playoff's run - any Prime piece was anything with more than one colour on the jersey piece, whether it was a patch or not - it did not matter - at least that is my understanding

If anybody has Material Ink with multi colored patch, providing me the scan would be highly appreciated!

Dear Hama

Thank you for your information!

Do you know anything about Material Piece? Do they randomly had multi colored patches? Do you think my Alomar is genuine card or some kind of error or counterfeit? Seeking for your advice!

I believe there was either an error or someone faking these cards at one point (like every other type of card!)

Here are two examples I had in my collection for a short period of time but were moved before I even realized the "PRIME" designation and what it meant or any of this patch-faking debauchery was commonplace or talked about. I bought them because they looked cool.

EDIT:

Just looked through my Mets collection and saw this one that said "PRIME" so now I'm confused as well?
