Made up Ebay auction #126571767639 and submitted to PSA for quick opinion and came back as 'likely genuine" and they sent me a submission form for $15 off if I sent in for grading.

"Dear Claude xxxxxx:
Your PSA/DNA QuickOpinion request for the item described as, 1968 Topps signed bb card: Hank Aaron, eBay Lot No. 126571767639, was rendered on 07/12/2024 and the result is:
I've seen lots of 'Hal' signatures, but very few with the 'on' sequence on this auto. Admittedly I have seen authenticated Aaron autos with this 'on' combo at the end. This signature was JSA witnessed. I hope, if you grade it, that it is authenticated, and if it is authenticated, I hope it's authentic!

I think it may be secretarial unfortunately

Looks like Hal Aarn!
Not authentic.
The ones that look like "Hal" are from later in his life, where the first stroke of the H always looks like an S.
With the shape of the H in the OP above, his name should be a full "Hank".

I have a 4 Hank autos in my PC dating from about ‘91 to ‘00. This doesn’t look like any of mine. It’s the “H” that looks the most off imo

Good for you!
I'm not convinced. but I also am not sure.

This signature was JSA witnessed. I hope, if you grade it, that it is authenticated, and if it is authenticated, I hope it's authentic!
Doesn't it still seem iffy when PSA says "likely". Does not sound completely definitive.
Thats is as close as you can get to yes when you do one of those quick opinions. There is no Yes or NO, only when you actually send it in....
