What I found interesting has already been pointed out on another website. (HOS)
The Jackie Robinson single signed baseball was the only autograph item in the Heritage auction that did not have two COA's. It only had a JSA COA.
And when someone submitted it to PSA Quick Opinion they came back as "likely not authentic." Did PSA see this ball before the auction went online? They saw every other item in the auction. If they saw the ball I would speculate that they turned it down.
I forget which auction house was selling a single signed Mathewson baseball recently. It had a JSA COA with it. But the auction house, in their description, did state that PSA examined the ball and did not think it was authentic. That differs from what might have happened at Heritage. Did PSA see this baseball before the auction went online? Just askin'.
I would not give an opinion on this ball myself unless I had it in hand and had time to examine it carefully.
(I am already banned by Heritage).
