It’s a good question, as I too have noticed huge price disparities on balls like this. But to properly answer it, you’d need to post pics or a link to the Heritage lot. If you can do that, you’ll likely get some better answers.
Regardless, that’s a very nice/clean example you acquired. |

Connie Mack was deemed a clubhouse signature on the $310 ball.

Does Connie Mack add $4,100 of value though?

Well he is the biggest signature on the ball, he sits right on the sweetspot, and was the leader of the team. So it is pretty glaring for his sig to be secretarial.
I think it's just a case of two bidders really wanting the Heritage example, and driving it up well beyond market value.... combined with yours going a bit inexpensively. Still a huge price disparity, but those collectors with biggest pockets wouldn't want a secretarial Mack. |

The second one wasn’t my ball. Mine is off to psa to be Authenticated. I will let you know if mine is deemed real or not! |

Best of luck, and sorry for the misinterpretation. I think yours will come back as authentic.

The $4K ball has both Mack and Cochrane on the sweet-spot, and it is an official AL ball.
The $300 ball is an unofficial ball, with only Mack (not authentic) on the SS. The ball is also in worse condition, and the signatures are not as bold and clear as the more expensive ball. Also, the $300 ball was sold in 2010, and the $4K ball was sold in 2007. Steve

Oh, I really have no idea what it might be worth. One thing to keep in mind is that $4K ball was sold 12 years ago, and prices have changed a lot since then. Steve
