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

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

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.
