t206 Joe Doyle Error on eBay

The repair makes the added nat'l look like it's simply part of the same repair. if the whole corner has been reconstructed from parts then the replacement flake with nat'l isn't anything unusual, just another bit that's been reattached.

I've seen a couple stamps done like that, obvious reperforating distracting from the bits scraped off or drawn in that make it a "reperfed rare stamp" rather than a "messed up cheap stamp" -it's the latter one once you look closely.

But I hope the card isn't fake, that would be a nice find even if it won't grade.

i had thought about that. with the naked eye that doesn't appear to be the case. i can shine a high powered bright white light through the card. it doesn't appear to have any extra paper in that spot.

when i get home i will post better scans.

Just by looking at the scans, I think you should get your money back. Dave
