Is this T206 Ty Cobb Legit?
 

Before bidding on this, I just want to make sure it is not one of the Craigslist specials.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike

Bid away.

Looks ok to me and even with the 19.5% juice is still in play.

It is real and looks very nice.

Looks real, but in my opinion I wouldn't compare this card to other 5's. Overall it is a great card that I'd be happy to own but the corners are a bit rounded for a 5, and to me looks more like a strong 4 or 4.5.

According to my records a 5 will auction off for around $1500-$2000, while a 4 would be around $1150-$1300.

i've seen 5s with worse corners, and with the centering and nice color i agree with jim it's a nice 5.

I think it's a wonderful 5. Great centering, color, etc. And $1750 for the card would be a decent deal.

I agree with Jeff - great color on that card.

After blowing up the scan, the card looks 4.5 to me too. The centering is strong. The corners, toning and registration appear vg-ex.
