They have slabbed all "Big 4" T206 cards inaccurately before as well, right? Including a Heinie Wagner graded as a Honus?
I have seen multiple N43s listed as N29s by mistake.

And 1980s baseball pins of Mickey Mantle listed as 1969 despite him not even being in the set? They've done that too.

Sometimes for fun I go through the APR tool and grab a common card like a Jordan chrome and see how many are listed as the wrong parallel (refractor instead of base, cards from different years mistaken since most of his cards were #23...). With how many quality control and research steps they claim to take and how long they sit there in purgatory, they're hysterically incompetent. And now they're sending PSA 9 Jordan rookies to the wrong submitter... geesh.
