Apologies for accidentally publishing that last post twice. I've erased the duplicate post.

It looks like maybe the master hasn't been updated in awhile. I scrolled through the Old Mills (just because I know them best) and found 10 or so that are listed as unconfirmed, but do exist and are documented.

Agreed. But the difference with this situation is there are "pop zero" cards listed as "confirmed" that probably shouldn't be.

It's fun to find cards that are listed as "possible, not confirmed." It's maddening to try and find cards that are listed authoritatively as "confirmed" when they don't actually exist.

A card doesn't have to be in the pop reports to be confirmed. In the beginning
PSA didn't put the backs on the flips and/or there could be only raw examples
of a confirmed card.

I picked up this Maloney Broadleaf 350 back in 2012 Raw. At the time it was
already confirmed by t206resource but there were none listed in the pop reports until this one was graded and sold in this years fall REA auction.

What you say is true. However, when we know that T206 Resource has posted conflicting data about whether a card is confirmed, that undermines the credibility of all supposed confirmations on the site where the existence of the card hasn't been independently verified by other third parties. Make sense?

No not really. I don't know if the Cards you pointed out exist or if they're data entry errors but even if they are with the thousands of entries a couple of mistakes doesn't
undermine the credibility of all the confirmations in my eyes. I have confirmed several cards with Tim And Jim (for transparency purposes Jim is a friend of mine)
and they have always asked for front and back scans of the card(s) before confirming them.

When dealing with high volume data I don't believe error free
is a feasible expectation. The pop reports are full of errors.

They got the "no cap" part right.

If anyone on this forum has this card with a SOVEREIGN 350 back, please chime in.

Thanks.

You patently misstated what I wrote. I didn't say the known errors "undermine the credibility of all the confirmations." I said they undermine
the credibility of all supposed confirmations on T206 Resource where the existence of the card hasn't been independently verified by other third parties. And it's true. If I can see with my own eyes that T206 Resource classifies the Sov 350 forest green Clarke portrait as both "confirmed" and "probable no print" in different places on different checklists, and there's no other evidence that the card exists, that undermines the reliability and credibility of T206 Resource's confirmation of that card and any other purported Sov 350 forest green card for which there is no independent corroboration -- such as the Chance red portrait and the Chesbro.

I have tried to ask questions of the site owners on other occasions before, using the T206 Resource "contact form" page. But I didn't get any responses the last couple of times I did so. So this time I'm crowdsourcing instead. I hope they see this thread and respond for the benefit of everyone in the T206-collecting community.

Hey Ted, are you out there?
