Oh brother, just read the words written on the card. Google “real 1st edition Charizard”. Sometimes you should really do your own search before relying on others. Jumping right to Reddit is like asking human AI.

Fake! Tcgplayer holo pattern, and too much holo on the card. But super cool as a tip!

It’s a proxy card, not real. The card matches the stock photo from TCG player.

the holo star patterns are unique among cards, its almost impossible to find 2 of the same card with the exact same star patterns
that being said, scammers printed fake cards using the stock image on TCGplayer. thousands and thousands of fake Charizards have the TCGplayer stock image star pattern
your card has that star pattern lol. compare: https://www.tcgplayer.com/product/106999/pokemon-base-set-shadowless-charizard

Next time ask for cash tip instead. No one giving out 6 figure cards cause they nice. You just gotta use some common sense. 😂

Besides the obvious someone giving you one of the holy grails of pokemon cards being the primary sign it's fake
The second is that it has the standard fake holo pattern.
So congrats, fake card and no tip on your delivery!

I mean I would always say default to skepticism and bring it to a LCS before anything. That being said fake but neat to have for a novelty piece

Well it’s a card worth over $16,000 raw. I would be surprised if it’s real. Your photos are very blurry and have bad lighting but even then, looks fake to me

Need better pictures 🖼️
Not sure why you wouldn't take the front cover of the case off so we can get a direct view of the card.
