Beckett is going to be at a show in my town, are they trustworthy to grade my card?

Yes, Beckett is trustworthy, but it will be worth more in a PSA or SGC holder most likely.

DO NOT use Beckett for a card like that. SGC would be my 1st option followed by PSA. My 2 cents - it looks legit.

Maybe a Becket raw review? I'd think that they would know that it's legit.

^^THIS^^ Then if they pass it you can send it to SGC or PSA to get it into a more valuable plastic slab if you are going to sell.

Here's a nice easy way to tell authenticity of Leafs:

Look at the card from any side (the thinnest part of the card) - you should see two different colors of card stock - white towards the front and grey towards the back.

Leaf have the worst quality control of any set I can think of. Color variations, image shifts, off center or even wrong backs, they have it all. I believe the card is genuine.
