Compare the stamp with the Food Stamp Identification Handbook using the Magnifying Glass. Check the printed amount, lettering, logo, seal and chip separately. The handbook lists 40, 80, 120, 160, 200 and 240 credits; a security seal is required from 160 upward. A damaged chip can make even a genuine stamp unusable.

Open the reference beside the inspection
Open the Food Stamp Identification Handbook beside the stamp’s inspection tray. Our 1:40 video above enlarges the current retail handbook’s genuine and incorrect examples so the differences are readable. These are reference examples printed in the handbook, rather than two stamps offered by customers.
We checked the handbook on Windows / Steam build 26284217 (100-REV3), using a separate Apprentice run on Mark Up (Normal) with Welfare Program and Skip Intro. That run supplied the handbook and a Magnifying Glass. The perk screen says the Commissary is available immediately and Monday stamps depend on wealth; this does not establish when a run without the perk receives the tools.
The retail handbook lists six issued amounts. Check the printed number before judging the artwork. A 50-credit stamp fails that list; the separately attributed creator example below shows one being inspected.
Separate the security seal from the chip. They are different checks. The handbook requires a seal for a stamp worth at least 160 credits and says lower amounts do not have one.
The genuine reference reads REPUBLIC SOCIAL PROGRAM. In the handbook’s upper-right example, those same words use visibly heavier, different letter shapes. Its lower example instead reads SOCAL and PROGRM. Spelling alone therefore cannot clear a stamp: compare the font, color, missing letters and alignment too.
Compare the stamp with the genuine reference at a readable scale. Check one line at a time. If the tiny text remains unresolved, inspect another feature before deciding.
The two handbook logos share much of their round outline and crosshair pattern. In this specific comparison, the genuine example has three horizontal strokes in each lower wing; the incorrect example has only one. Compare the whole reference, since this pair does not catalogue every possible forgery.
The handbook also flags a missing logo. A recognizable outline alone does not establish authenticity.
The displayed handbook says food stamps contain a chip. A missing or damaged chip makes the stamp unusable even when the stamp is genuine. That warning concerns whether it can be used; it does not establish that every damaged genuine card is counterfeit.
Inspect the chip separately from the security seal. If you plan to use the stamp at the Commissary, matching the printed design does not cancel the handbook’s damaged-chip warning. We have not tested the damaged-chip variations or their redemption outcomes.
Insym compares an invalid denomination with the handbook and uses the inspection interface. This is one observed counterfeit, not a catalogue of all possible fakes.

Community-reported video. Visually reviewed 2:48:46–2:49:38: 50-credit card, enlarged inspection, handbook comparison and Confront interaction. One counterfeit example, not all possible forgeries; no redemption test.

In the reviewed clip, the card is printed as 50 credits. The handbook alongside it lists the valid amounts, so the value is enough to identify a mismatch. The creator also examines the chip, marks inspection issues and uses Confront.
Treat this as a worked example of comparing evidence with the available checkboxes. The creator’s later speculation about scamming another buyer is not a verified redemption or resale strategy. You do not need to buy the card to finish the comparison.
If the font remains unclear, enlarge the in-game reference instead of guessing from a tiny browser embed. Full-screen playback can help you see the example, while the written checklist keeps the order of inspection clear. Passing one check does not excuse another mismatch.
Kingy inspected the retail handbook and opened an issued stamp’s inspection tray in the run documented above. Our original video explains the handbook examples. The linked 50-credit seller confrontation is Insym’s footage, with its own unknown build and difficulty. We have not independently tested seller confrontations, every counterfeit or reputation losses from a mistaken accusation. Use your installed handbook if the rules change.
