The two people bidding obviously havent done their homework, and are bidding on a ball worth about $400-$500. They likely think its a 1909 baseball...
Very good. I didn't know the Tener ball had it as well, and wasn't 100% sure whether or not all Heydler balls had it.. We all learn something new everyday, and that's why we're here. .
