I'm betting the silly eBay program wouldn't authenticate it because it is a stamp, not because it is a fake.

100% legit. I own a complete set of Helmar Stamps. There are a few reprints out there, but they are pretty easily detectable. This one is not one of them. I think the eBay authentication program is flawed, nothing wrong with the stamp itself. You got a nice HOF rookie “card” too, which is why I presume you picked it up.

Nice snag!!

It looks real to me...

I suggest you illuminate it with a black light for self-satisfaction. Really easy to do, real ones won't fluoresce.

Fun thing, one way of determining the paper of some stamps from the 1870s is that they react to UV.
Same with the inks. On a few it can be the difference between $100 and $4000
