    I'm not an expert in authenticating vintage cards, and as far as i'm concerned, PCG or whatever they call themselves isn't either.

    The bottom line......

    1)Only an idiot seller or a scammer would get this card slabbed by a 3rd rate company.

    2)only an idiot buyer would spend the money to buy a card of this magnitude slabbed by a 3rd rate company.

    What are the printed numbers/letters at the
    bottom left on the reverse of the card ?

    Does the bid-history look a little shilly ?

    I like the little holographic stickers on each corner of the case that hide the four screws. image

    Rich Rich Rich . .. you think that the seller actually PAID to have that encased? He printed up his own label, got his own little stickers, and made it mint +! If it wasn't trimmed, it'd b e in a PSA holder. . . just like the other 12 auctions he has.

    And by the way, how the heck did this not get some sort of qualifier for the horrible diamond cut?

    Funny thing is, he only has sold 3 items total in his time on e-bay, and then comes out with high dollar cards from importants sets? Maybe he is selling off his personal collection, or maybe he built his feedback just in time for these 13 auctions too all end at the same time?. I don't like the smell of any of it. Maybe I'm paranoid, but it looks like the perfect time to play the get payed and run game. Needless to say, I'm only saying this so none of you will out bid me on the 52 Mantle. image

    I would defer this one to A761506.

    The card is an obvious fake in case anyone was wondering. I have owned a few and handled many, many others. No chance, No way, No how is that authentic. Its such a shame I will have to take time and report that card to ebay for about 5 different violations.
