We are happy to be able to offer the card authenticated and encapsulated by SGC, only the second confirmed and graded example. We do this day in and day out, and we've heard every story and seen items come from some of the strangest places. We are natural skeptics ourselves. But we have to cast all the noise aside and evaluate the items on their own merits, and when we had a chance to properly inspect this card, it was absolutely everything that you'd expect it to be.
The card will be lot #6 in the auction that opens two weeks from tomorrow. It will have a starting bid of $2500 and we expect it to sell for many multiples of that. We're excited to let the card run its course, properly authenticated and offered in a reliable venue. It should be fun to watch!

The card will be on display at our booth next weekend (April 6-8) at the Chantilly, VA show. It will also be available for inspection in person by appointment at our office for the duration of the auction (April 13-May 6).

What does SGC know? There were several Net 54 "experts" who repeatedly told us the card is fake. Gosh it is just so hard to decide who to believe.
