First off, check the card texture! Real golden Pokemon cards have a distinct, slightly rough texture, especially around the gold parts. Fakes often miss this detail, feeling too smooth or plastic-like. Next, look at the print quality. Genuine cards have sharp, clear images and text, while fakes might look blurry or have color issues. The card edges can give it away too; real Pokemon cards have clean, smooth edges. And don't forget the holographic effect; it should be uniform and high quality on real gold cards. If it looks patchy or dull, question it!

Honestly, just weigh them. Real cards have a specific weight to them, and fakes tend to be lighter or heavier because they use different materials. Not the most scientific method, but it's quick and surprisingly effective.

Fake golden Pokemon cards are everywhere, but the easiest giveaway? The price. If it's too good to be true, it probably is. Real golden cards are rare and costly.
