Another PSA mess up? major card - AA to 5

[Pat R]

Technically David Hall still owns it. He purchased it in the PSA 5 holder and it
hasn't come up for sale in one of his auctions yet.

Wow, cut and dry same card. Thank you for posting

That's a match Ryan. There are several small spots on the top border which are the same on both images. Thanks for posting,

Nice find Chris. So the same card went from a 4, to an A, to a 5.....

Unfortunately, this is part of the whole crack and re-submit (maybe with some doctoring in between) that is common. Have seen it dozens, if not hundreds of times.

Yeah, definitely the same card as others have said. I wonder what the supposed alteration was? The card does look super sharp for a 4, let alone a 5.

If they are all the same card, the latest version appears darker to me. The red appears darker.

The latest version is also missing the small white speck near Cobb’s ear. The A-A version shows a white speck near Cobbs left ear (card’s right side) while the latest one does not.

Such a shame, looked like a great card before. I wish people valued and paid more for wider borders. Wider the border, higher price for the card. That'd be hard to fake.
But I'm also a guy who thinks school teachers should get paid more than school administrators. Don't think either one of those is happening anytime soon.

Assuming that it is the same card and that PSA cert # system follows actual numerical order, then the card went from AA, to a 5 to a 4.

The 90M number precedes the other two. The earliest PSA flips used odd number jumping for the cert numbers, but had those distinctive rounded corners on the flip. The AA was next, then the 5.

Agreed. Clearest indicators.

Pat, I think this card may been purchased from the David Hall collection privately before the auctions began.
