T204 Nichols reprint in PSA 2 holder on eBay

[Leon]

That one is so bad I almost have to give the benefit of the doubt to PSA until the slab and card are seen in person. Nice blurry scan, eh?

The scan is so blurry that it is difficult to make out the serial # on the flip but after trying a few combos, I found this on the PSA Certification site:

Cert Year Brand Player Variety Grade
16261056 1959 TOPPS LOU JACKSON EXCELLENT-MINT 6
16261057 1959 TOPPS WILLARD SCHMIDT EXCELLENT-MINT 6
16261058 1960 TOPPS BUDDY GILBERT VERY GOOD-EXCELLENT 4

Wow. Major blunder by PSA to be sure - Unless slab opened and reprint inserted in place of original card.

Wow-It is such a bad scan I couldn't see much of anything....

Speaking of fake cards in real holders:

Perhaps someone could call GAI tomorrow and give them a head's up. Tomorrow is Monday, right?

[BobbyVCP]

The GAI graded card say "1983 Capital Reprint on it" so it is not a fake one getting past them.

that T204 looks way darker than any I've seen up close. I was just over at my brothers house and he collects them. He doesn't think it'sa real Ramly. Just who is grading the pre-war cards at PSA ? Encapsulating a Frisch re-print is about as embarrassing as it can get for a grading company....or am I wrong ? To think that some collectors look upon PSA as the Authority on card grading....what a joke

is there anything wrong with that one? GAI lists it as a reprint on the label.

Seems pretty odd to me. GAI is authenticating a card that is not authentic.
