I think the turning point is "historical significance" and there is just no evidence to me that this Cobb-used bat has much historical significance.

ANY Ty Cobb Game-used Bat (if authentic) carries historical significance. And for the record, the number of surviving Ty Cobb Game-used Bats is far closer to a T206 Wagner than to a T206 Cobb (it's not even close).

I own a couple of T206 Cobbs, but will never own a couple of his game-used bats... or even one, for that matter (barring lottery winnings or some other miracle).
