I found a T212 Obak Lalonge card graded PSA 4. According to PSA's verification search tool this card is a 1 of 1 with none graded higher. The POP report supports this. I purchased the card this evening:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1911-T212-Obak-Lalonge-PSA-4-VGEX-PWCC-/401515695175?rmvSB=true

Here's where it gets weird. I Googled this card and also came up with a PSA 6 graded card. The PSA verification search says there are 2 cards at this grade with 1 graded higher! I found this listing on eBay:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1911-T212-Obak-Mickey-La-Longe-PSA-6-Sacramento-Sacts-PCL-/392016079903?_trksid=p2054897.l4275

I noticed that the PSA 6 graded card is in an older card holder the the one I purchased (PSA 4) is in a newer holder. How is this possible? :confused:

Have the Russians infiltrated PSA's database??? :eek:

Data entry error. Looks like PSA entered the name two different ways and the records are separate.

So I have the highest graded Lalonge. At least it wasn't expensive. :(

The reason for this is because you live in Canada. Just as $1.00 in the US is equal to $1.29 Canadian, a PSA 4 in the US is equal to PSA 6 in Canada.

You are welcome.

If the La Longe is the correct spelling and yours is wrong, they will correct it for free including shipping both ways if you just email them, then they'll update the POP report. If the person with the PSA 3 also turns theirs in, the database will be correct.

I hope Dolley Madison is on hand to save all of the baseball cards.

Makes sense now.
