Doctored Nodgrass T206 Error

[MVSNYC]

Dan is right, the real examples have a partial S showing...I own this legit example (in fact, I've owned this card 3 different times since 1991). I was the one who sent it in to PSA with a letter explaining the variation (mine was the first graded). During the time it was not in my collection, someone had it re-slabbed and PSA wouldn't label it again Nodgrass (frustrating). Here's mine pictured in the old holder, and now re-slabbed (not by me).

*The scuffs/marks on the old scan are on the slab and/or scanner, not the card.

Nice catch, Dan. They should hire you!

Oh I bit my tongue cause I love Grading so much but TY my dear friend for the nice compliment...

I wish PSA would buy it back and destroy it but that won't happen

Thanks Dan! I wish the old owner just kept it in the original slab...or...that PSA carried over the "Nodgrass" labeling.

Seems PSA would be obligated to recognize that error

Eric, I called and asked them, they wouldn't do it. I wasn't about to get into an argument over the phone with them...next Nat'l I goto (whenever that may be), I'll bring it and show them clear images of the before flip...I agree with you, they should do it over the same.

Sorry to piggyback but I didn’t think this was worth a whole new thread , but I wanted to post this ridiculous listing -
Even if this dizzy Dean was real it wouldn’t be worth 120 bucks . ($2000?)

Great info! Only problem is those buttheads that are removing the S will now leave the part of the "S" that is necessary if they read this board. Also, let's hope after the TPGs learn something from Dan that they reject the "nodgrass" cards (no partial S) and only tell the submitter that's it not altered and do not provide the submitter with the partial S reason.

Edited to add: What's your thoughts? If a TPG rejects that nodgrass (no partial S), should they not encapsulate the card? Not even with an AUTH - ALTERED? Unless the TPGs actually indicate the alteration of the removed S.

That 3 is the real McCoy! Nice card!
