Unusual PSA flip

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,

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.

Now this is an unusual PSA slip (although a legit holder):

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....

Everything is legit in regards to the Young posted above (including the flip).


Here is an example of a bogus PSA holder:
