Hi all,
Here we have the highest graded 1966 #50 Mickey Mantle Topps Venezuelan card. Very, very desireable card.

Yet for the scribbled letter "A" on the back,, its now a "QUALIFIED" card !!

The seller is asking $2500, obo.

I believe that with out that MK "qualification", this card never even makes it to Ebay.

Feelings, ??

How can you tell a venezuelan from a regular topps?

Ahmanfan,

The south american version is printed on a darker cardboard that has virtually no gloss on front and bright orange-pink highlights on back,,,, and the PSA label say`s so

I'm shocked that card didn't make it to a doctor before it headed on over to PSA.

Looks like INK, Can they get that off?

Ink can be removed by a paper conservator, but you'd still have a pen impression.

Venezuelan cards have a big "A" on the back.

And they speak with an accent.

Sad thing is, I sent that card to GEM and they wrote the A on the back for Authentic.
