Default 1921 w551

Quick question... I have never had a blue text W551 in my hands, but it was always my thought that the blue text versions were counterfeits. Can anyone else weigh in here?

That has been my experience/opinion too and by the looks of that PSA graded one, still stands.

Looks counterfeit to me. PSA botched that one.

Default Blue W551 too

I believe all the blue text W551 versions are actually Larry Fritsch reprints. If so, so much for any confidence in PSA grading/identification abilities.

Clearly a reprint. Another one slips past PSA.
