I don't know, I've replaced punchtabs before when they haven't been removed completely from the card and it's almost impossible to tell the difference. Either way, it's something so subtle that most collectors are probably not going to pick up on it.

That's the primary reason that I never pay extra for a figure just because it's listed as "unpunched."
