Default 2001 Fleer Legacy #102 Albert Pujols Autograph Fake?

I know that there are fake 2001 Fleer Legacy Pujols autos. This happened due to the way the exchange program worked combined with Fleer going out of business and selling blank (non signed) cards in auction.

From my research it looks like the authentic ones should be limited to the first 300 and that his auto should be lower and smaller on the card. Also it appears PSA stopped grading them once it was known there were fakes and BGS will only grade if the auto is authenticated first.

It is in the Mile High auction and I sent an email to them, but haven't heard back. This was just a few days ago so no reason to slam the auction company as they may be doing their own research at the moment. I just wanted to get others opinions on this one since it is graded (but not auto authenticated) by PSA. More in particular is it an authentic auto, just not a 2001 auto? Thank you.



A very informative blog on this card and its fakes:
