Damn. I was hoping it was an early birthday present. Do you think it would be a bad idea to send it in to be sure?

Save your money on the grading, it is fake, as others have said.... and if he had it listed as T206 on ebay, and it hasn't been too long, return it. SNAD...

Pretty good fake front though I have to say. Back is just silly.

Like Pete I was thinking the print on the back was too dark, but then I checked out a real one that I have and it also has dark print. The scan of it is below.

Still probably not authentic, but I personally think it is worth sending to TPG for authentication, just because it doesn't scream fake to me, but just kind of whispers loudly. Can you provide us more detailed image of both front and back?

Why waste more money just hold onto it if you cannot return it and bring it to a show and show a few people .

Default switched order of scans for better viewing

Not saying it is real, but to me it looks like the same font. I added another authentic back for comparison purposes along with the Cobb from the OP.

You already spent 200 on the card. What's another 10 or 20 bucks to send it in? You can also send scans in to PSA for their quick opinion service first and see what they say. Or walk it into the show next month if you're in the Chicago area.
