What the heck?

The grade is 3! I hardly ever click on a reprint card on Ebay. I can usually tell from the pic if it's a reprint and I only use my cell phone.

is this combination even possible? I was just curious and asked the guy for a back scan or image, saying it would make a difference in the value of the card depending on which tobacco brand was advertised, and the series number. He almost instantly sent this .....



shot with a phone, I'm guessing, but I can't make out anything in the smaller print. Is this combination even possible?

Yes - Cobb Green Portrait has a Sovereign 150 Back.

Yep, mine Green Cobb has a SOV 150 back. You can look & see in my Albulm here on N54. (clicky my signature link)

Are we sure that this is a reprint? After 8+ years of collecting these, I'd like to think that I'm fairly well versed in T206's. I can spot a reprint almost within a split second. Other than the "chipping" around the edges, at first glance this looks completely 100% legit. Without seeing it in person, I wouldn't be so quick to rule out that this is truly authentic....

I actually don't think it's a reprint. I think most of the concern is based on the seller's low feedback, the initial lack of a back photo or even a mention of what it was, as well as the odd $600 price tag. I don't really touch four figure cards that aren't graded and that I can't see in person, but my impression from the photos is that it's authentic.
