Fake or Real 1st Edition Charmander!?

The stamp looked off and was the first thing I saw. It looks like a thin stamp which doesn’t exist as far as I know for non holo 1st base set cards, usually with a thin stamp the word ‘edition’ that circles it is very thick, you can check out this great thread www.elitefourum.com/t/1st-edition-stamp-variations-lets-iron-it-out/17624/1, also font is slightly off and border color is faded/off. Also I believe when looking at borders it usually sways in one direction, so for this card both the left & right borders are thin, its usually one is thinner and the other side is thicker, if I’m incorrect someone more knowledgeable can correct me.
