It would be great for the hobby if the card was an authentic Broad Leaf 460. Here is my theory on this card. Someone purchased a beater red Cobb, lightly sanded off the back and probably with a home printer they printed the Broad Leaf 460 reverse on it. You could easily get a BL460 reprint on eBay. Inside the deep back crease you can still see the brown ink, see attached pic. I could be wrong.
I say Jamie has the only one.

Doesn’t anyone see the “g” in cigarette. It should be missing ink in that deep crease. It’s obviously been put on, over the crease.

FWIW, it looks ok to me. If it's a fake, it's a good one. Just my opinion as a neutral observer. I'm not an expert, this isn't my auction, and I'm not planning to bid.
My red Cobb was purchased in a similar kind of auction: seller with no other cards for sale, low feedback, not a lot of details in the description, etc. I watched as it went through through two rounds of 7 day eBay auctions without a bid. After communicating with the seller, carefully examining the pictures, and making comparisons to other examples, I felt confident enough to bid on the card the third time around. I was the only bidder, and I got the card for $400. It was delivered promptly and I was thrilled to see for myself that it was definitely real. Certainly, the card in question now is in a completely different league of scarcity and value than mine. But, crazy things do happen. Good luck if you bid!
