1909 Colgan Chips Stars of the Diamond
I'm not familiar with these cards, and have a few questions:
http://i408.photobucket.com/albums/p...um/Cobbweb.jpg http://i408.photobucket.com/albums/p...m/bakerweb.jpg http://i408.photobucket.com/albums/p.../hooperweb.jpg http://i408.photobucket.com/albums/p.../wagnerweb.jpg 1. Do these look authentic? 2. What is the grading criteria for these? 3. Opinions on what these might grade? Thanks in advance |
1) yes
2) same as a regular card, except for the corners being rounded 3) assuming no back problems, cobb 1.5, baker 6-7, hooper 5-6, wagner 1.5 |
They look about right, but might be some sort home made reprint. Although it is difficult to cut that circle out.
Are you able to see these in person, and hold them? If so, get a real Colgans, someone here can sell you one, or at worst loan you one. Then you can compare in person. Also, take a black light with you. Illuminate the back of the card. If it fluoresces, then it is fake. A good, reliable test. Affordable hand held black lights are on eBay and elsewhere, $8 to $15, spot one fake and it's paid for itself. If you don't get to see these cards in person and do these tests before purchase, then get a return policy hammered out up front. |
Thanks Frank
