As a follow-up, the certification number matches up with a PSA 1 Young "Unknown Back" (again, meaning it was graded earlier, not lately because the backs are now tracked).

While I don't know the nuances of when PSA may or may not have put dates on its' flips, this is a relatively low value card - maybe $75 or so. I still don't think there is anything fishy here.

I'd pay $75 for that card. And since I live naively stuck in the past when it comes to prices, I figure the card is worth more than that. What seems of much greater importance to me is the card... it looks authentic. Maybe that item would cause a slab collector some concern. Looks good to this card collector.

Frank - not sure if you saw the back scan from the link posted above. Here it is. Would you still pay $75 without question?

Jon, you're right, I did not see that back, or what is left of the back. Still, I'd give $75 for that, delivered. At that price, and with that back, it would not be as good of a deal for me as I initially perceived. Thanks for posting the back. Still, the card looks fine, screw the slip.

I agree with you Frank - authentic card. (PS - the opening bid is $50, and no one has opened it yet).

That card will sell for more than $75.

i know where frank is coming from, i think.
there was a time not that long ago---before the fall of 2008--- when i would've jumped at paying 100, 125, even 150 for that card.
but those times are long gone it seems and i'm with Jon that 75 is about right nowadays and probably for years to come.
with respect to the flip issue, Jon has elucidated it well imho.

best,
barry

I'm still trying to figure out what is up with the back of the card All that paper loss and the "Pi" in "Piedmont" is still there on top of the paper loss?

I believe the word used to describe that (by one former board member), is "underprint."
