you do your best, you do your homework and know exactly what to look for, and after all that, you might only be able to conclusively rule out items, not rule them in.

After everything Travis said, it comes down to three words.

Leap of faith.

I believe I was offered this jersey or one just like it along with a couple of others from that same era. Can I ask where you were offered this?

I bought it on ebay and it was listed correctly as a salesman sample. Chances of me owning a B. Robby jersey isn't very good due to price restrictions. This is the next best thing for me.

Yes, buying a "game used" jersey requires a leap of faith but you can shorten the fall by doing your homework.

The O's also used a "reverse block" lettering (at least in '76) around that time.
