Does this 56 Mantle look… funny?

I’m not sure. At a glance it looks good but the back looks a little shiny, and the printing detail just looks a little bit off. The seller has another low grade copy that does look good to me. So it’s curious. What do you guys think?

1000% fake. The rest of his mantles do look authentic though.

As long as you trust PSA to identify a fake, you're covered.

I thought I understood that raw cards go through CGC?

They used to; when the hurricane damaged that area and they got backed up, eBay changed it to PSA.

The seller ships your card to the authentication facility, where PSA inspects every item. For ungraded cards, PSA experts verify authenticity through a multi-point inspection, and then carefully review listing details for accuracy. For graded cards, PSA experts authenticate each case and label. No regrading is performed.

Dull color, low quality image, surface cracking, white stock visible on back edges. Don't even waste your money hoping lol. It's not far fetched to say whoever looks at it is half asleep or doesn't care in that moment and passes it. So there is only downsides and headaches to look forward to.
