Obviously just my opinion, but if you are worried about authenticity just avoid the card and buy one already graded by PSA or SGC.
Plus, even if it is real which I have no reason to believe otherwise, it's not the nicest one you can find. Atrocious front centering always bothers me.

I understand its not the nicest but I do like grabbing as many Mantle cards as I can!!! I buy everything Mickey Mantle no matter what shape just because that's my guy I collect.

there isn't really anything that bothers me about it. Not always possible to tell a lot of things by a scan that you can by feel.

Mantle
Colby, the Mantle looks good to me, but I'm not professional on detecting frauds.
I know some people don't like the centering to have issues, but that's a beautiful card and if I were you and the price is right...I'd jump on it! Centering can be overrated, but is definitely a preference with some.

Colby, I am a Mantle guy myself, so I understand the desire to pick up as much as you can. I would strongly advise against buying any high grade cards raw though. There is too much of a risk with it, particularly if you are buying online. In the lower grades, it is much easier to identify a fake. Just my two cents.
