Robert AI have a t206 chance with a blank back graded by GA as "authentic." The hard has not been trimmed, colored or any of that malarkey. It might have been hand-cut by someone at the factory, but not altered by a collector. Why don't the grading companies designate these examples as "hand-cut?" It's because they have no clue what they're doing.
Do all the grading companies give the "authentic" designation or just some. I think I've seen auth. in sgc, but not sure.
I've only seen psa auth. on really high-priced stuff.
