The first card I ever bought was a PRO T206. . Low grade and cheap but it was the last I ever looked at thanks to you guys. Still have it though.
Hard to tell from the scan but we can assume ANY higher grade card, and/or valuable card, in a PRO holder is either fake, trimmed or altered. That card won't sell for more than a couple dollars in a PRO holder....but the description of other auctioned ones is probably accurate. If you have a legitimate card it won't be in a PRO holder, 999 times out of a 1000. Kind of like buying a T206 Wagner on Craigs list.
