I inherited a Ty Cobb T206, can someone help me determine its authenticity?
 
I'm not sure if it is authentic or a reprint. I was told to come here to post, here is the link.

Hard to tell from the quality scans, but I would lean toward real. The borders look a little wide to me, but the sizes of the T206 can vary.

Looks like it is probably real. It would be worth sending to PSA to have it graded as it is in pretty nice shape.

Looks legit-send it to PSA. Worst case scenario you're out a few bucks. If real it will more than pay for itself. Loupes are cheap and easy to get on Amazon-get one and follow the guides online to sniff out a fugazi. You'll also get a really good sense of what grade it will receive.

You need a better photo, plus a reverse shot and a clear close up of the lower front section (where the Cobb name is)

I agree, do you have an iphone 5 or later? Or a standalone digital camera? Repost a clear shot from one of those devices.

I don't for the life of me know how anyone can see from that picture. Need much better image quality

Remove the card from the penny sleeve and take two pics, one with flash on and one with flash off. Make sure the pics are not fuzzy before posting, I'm sure you'll get an answer, one way or another

Please post better pics. With better pics some of us will be able to tell in less than 5 seconds.

Looks good to me.

Need a better pic, but my gut says fake.

Think it's in a penny sleeve AND a goofy lucite brick, makes it hard.
