FS: T206 Ty Cobb Bat Off Green Apple Sov.

[thenavarro]

Maybe it had a trip to the doctor in between PSA and SGC to soak and press the crease out and to press and sharpen the corners?

(Before anyone gets bent out of shape I'm not accusing the original poster of doing that,, just trying to find a logical explanation for the striking similarities but yet subtle differences in the scans posted)

Looks like the same card to me too on a quick glance

Overall I think its a great, attractive to the eye, iconic card of the great Cobb

If the crease was perfectly pressed out somehow, it wouldn't be a 3.

If scans (and less brightening) of the Cobb in an SGC holder were put on here with the same resolution of the Cobb in my previous PSA holder were put, you'd see all of the "similarities".

It is 100% the same card.

Mike C. can vouch for that, as he was the one who also knows I sold the card to Steve K. a couple months back. Steve then sold the card on eBay. I know this, as others do, because I saw it on eBay. I even asked Steve about it and he verified.

Up till 1:20 a.m. Florida time trying desperately to sabotage the thread....agenda much??

Again, not sure if or what could have been done to the card before I received it, but this card in person does not look all banged up with busted in corners as Nate's scan is showing.

Thanks Mike, I appreciate it, it's been receiving offers all night long. Definitely a polarizing card that's for sure. My price is about right where it should be. I was told a 4 grade would bring $3K. This card is not very far off. It's priced about right even at it's current grade given the initial offer I received of $2400 when I first purchased it.

Why not just sell it to the gentleman that offered $2400, if he made the offer 1 week after you bought it. That would have only been a week or so ago.

It was about two weeks ago, and it was the days following. I had no intention of selling at that point in time. That buyer also just purchased a rare back Cobb red portrait. Wish he still had the funds available.

Leaving aside the possibility that the crease might not show depending on resolution of the scan Glenn vouches that he has personally scrutinized the card and doesnt see the crease. So how are we to understand that?
