The last time this Cobb/LENOX was seen was in 2003. This date is well within the timeframe (1999 - 2006) of when that "rash" of "re-backed" (I refer to them as RE-FRONTED,
since this best describes how those T206 fakes were actually implemented) appeared in the hobby.
And, as you well know, we were able to detect those RE-FRONTED fakes since the majority of them had impossible front/back combos. However, those fakes were so sharp that
even the Grading Company's were fooled.
I don't think that this Cobb/LENOX card fits into the RE-FRONTED category. Every one of those RE-FRONTED fakes were professionally produced to grade at least a VgEx to ExMt
condition.
Anyhow, feel free to explain why you think this card appears to be "re-backed".
