Opened up two blue decks and a red deck that I have.
One blue and one red reck are totally fine. On the second blue deck, the blue joker and 8 of diamonds are very obviously a shade lighter than the rest of the deck. I had my wife look through the deck and ask if she noticed anything different about the backs of any of the cards. Nothing. Then I took 5 cards from the deck, the 8 of diamonds included, and asked her if she saw a difference in any of those cards specifically. Still nothing. I asked her to place the cards face down on the table and rearrange them. I was able to pick out the 8 of diamonds 3/3 times each time I turned my back and asked her to rearrange the cards. She was looking at me like I was a wizard.
