Help: Older Flip on 1955 Clemente RC... is it real?

[njdunkin1]

I'm thinking it was just an older copy made by PSA a few good years back...I would cross-check the PSA number on the card. Always a guarantee I believe it's somewhere on PSAcard.com.

The number is legit and the bar code is also legit.

I think it's real, but with a $3k card, I'd rather get the thoughts of the knowledgeable consensus.

Definitely reasonable. From what I've seen, I would give you the green light on this one.
Best of luck!

Agreed 100%. I think you're ok; looks like the real thing to me (and a beauty at that!), but I can't say definitively without having it in hand. I'd want to have my loupe, and another '55 Topps to compare it to.

Send it in to have it looked at, and put into the new slab. And please, let us know what PSA tells you.
