Unusual PSA flip

[ethicsprof]

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

A bit nicer in condition but you get the idea:

Ummmmm...that flip is seriously messed.

It doesn't say T206 on it - at all. Why does is say 1911? Anyone else have a PSA T206 that says 1911 on it? I have never seen one.

I doubt that card should be a "1" either. The back looks altered to me. There is a whole lot of inexplicably bold printing over top of areas of obvious paper loss. So how does that happen?

Cheers,
Blair

Ya that is it Turner-I was going to say 200-250.

This is just an old PSA flip-there are way more 206s out there that you can imagine-if you think you have a number in your head-double it.

That is why I started this thread. I had thought I had seen all the various T206 PSA flips; I was wrong. Thanks Jon.

PSA has issues,
Why in heck would they put "Cleveland" on the flip, yet not put "T206"????
They also put 1911 on a card only issued in 1909 (150 series back)... Kooks doing kooky stuff IMO Idiots!

An artist must have added the "P" on the back from what I can see, so this card has edge corner damage, scrapbook damage, and ink added...

worth $74, if that. IMO

This auction may not gain much interest due to the fact that there is a reserve on the item; however, I still think it's worth at least $100. I'd buy it for that right now. (I'm sure they want more than that though)

very true the card is only worth 50 to 75 bucks but if let go at a traditional auction more than likely it hits 200. I didn't realize the back was so bad but a grade 1 Young portrait will hit 200 give or take and depending on what back it has.

See post above.

This shouldn't be that complicated. Can't someone who has PSA membership, or whatever it is a fellow has to deal with them, can't he email in the scan and they can look at the slip and number on it, and tell what the deal is??

It appears to be a legit flip. I have definitely seen the # sign on the
right side of graded T206's in the past. It seems to be a clerical error
of some sort.

Just did a google image search and found at least one other card with
the odd "#" on the right. A PSA 9 Waddell portrait that recently sold
at auction....
