Super Rare Ty Cobb Tango Egg, the Myth

Good to be skeptical. Sometimes you have to take a chance, though, and that would be a good one to do it on. Great card of a fabulous player! Make mine rare.

funny that psa would take a stand with this card, with all the examples wonka showed above.

i hope it sold for cheaper raw because psa rejected it lol

Hi Anthony, I didnt even know about the back stamp or even the Oakes card until this post. Similar looking to the T212 stamps in some ways.
I dont recall the beat up Jennings I had over 10 years ago had the stamp but Im not 100% sure without a picture anymore..... Ive had 5 computers since then and a couple fried so I lost a lot of unique pics from the eBay early days and my collection I had saved.

What I was told is what folks said above.....PSA (Joe) thought the card could crumble in the authentication process and that is why they wouldn't do it. After seeing John's comparison of backs above it would be hard to think this is a faked card. Neat find.

Leon, that is sure not the impression that I got from your first post. I had the impression that you felt that PSA was casting doubts on the card. That may not have been what you meant, but it appears that you had knowledge of some information and choose not to include it to give an implied opinion.

PSA wouldn't slab it and.....

Hey David
That is a great card but call me Mr. Skeptical. Not sure the fact that Joe O said they wouldn't slab it has any bearing on my thoughts but I just don't know about it. If it's real it's a really neat card. Thanks for posting and best regards

Marty- I used my wording carefully. In the back of my mind I didn't see how slabbing that card would make it crumble. After the posts here it does seem as though that is a concern amongst grading companies.
