Default 1952-69 Mantle run with PSA 5 52T on ebay

https://www.ebay.com/itm/303959968373

Wow, right?

But...

Compare the 52T (first picture) with the 52T of the same cert. number sold back in 2008 in Goodwin (second picture).

Draw your own, as the saying goes.

The cards are completely different they aren't even the same variation.

The type "Type 2" seemingly has an overlapping, strike through the top left black border around the card. Usually more prominent in the Type A. Also, the font on the PSA holder where the #311 is, and the bar codes are off.

Me thinks it's Fakey Mantle. Steven Serge usually sells cars and came out of nowhere to sell his Mantle collection, so perhaps the poor guy got beat like a red headed stepchild?

Mexican Mantle, yay. Note the barcodes aren't even remotely similar.

Anyone who can't tell should not be buying a 52T Mantle.

But here's a good resource.

The barcodes are even different. Too hot to handle.
