I spoke to a gentleman (I believe he owns a card shop) anyway I questioned him about how to tell the difference between a 1987 Barry Bonds topps rookie card versus the same but "Tiffany". His answer was "on a Tiffany card the front would have a coating of gloss and the back coloring would be brighter - the back would have bright yellow or beige borders, non-Tiffany back would be a dull yellow as well as a dull front appearance".

Tiffany set - A high end set of cards, issued by Topps. These sets were identical to the regular issue set, except for the higher quality white cardboard stock and the addition of a protective UV coating.
