Guys, we need to avoid putting misinformation out there.
This is not simply an old flip. Not at all.
In every era of the PSA holder, T206 has been identified as T206. With no date whatsoever on the flip. If I'm wrong, show me (but I'm not).
[NOTE: after reviewing post #42 on this thread, it appears that there are a relatively small number of T206 cards that PSA identified on flips as 1911 and not T206. It is not as simple as saying it is an old flip - there are older PSA flips and newer PSA flips that all read only T206 with no date. It is also not tied to the presence of the # on the flip, as many with the # also are identified as T206.]
Yes, the font on this flip is consistent with one of the several older PSA fonts.
The flip in that holder is entirely consistent with how PSA identified Sporting Life cards when PSA was using that font...with the obvious exception that the flip has no reference to Sporting Life after the 1911.
I agree that one would most often expect a fake to be a higher value item. But this one has so many warning bells...not worth getting involved with.
Cheers,
Blair
