degraded copies
"faded copies" is another option if we take degradar to mean break down or deteriorate chemically but from the little context here IMO degraded is better.

faded copies
negative photocopy inverts the colors of the document when creating a photocopy, resulting in letters that appear white on a black background instead of black on a white background. Negative photocopies of old or faded documents sometimes produce documents which have better focus and are easier to read and study.

degraded copies
Explanation:
Although digital photography has no true original copies, the media has developed the ability to have non-degraded copies, unlike film photography where the print never shows the same detail as the original negative.

For each resizing operation a new clone is made of the original, then deleted when the resized file is created, so each copy is made from the original, rather than from increasingly degraded copies of reduced-size copies.

Color photographic dyes also tend to degrade over the long term
