Can we assume therefore that there'd been no tampering with the slab? It was strictly a case of PSA erring when they graded the card?

Not being snarky, I'm genuinely curious.

There's no need to be apologetic in any case. A company should be accountable for its actions.

I wasn't being apologetic, just clarifying the fact that it was a question. Fake cards in TPG holders should be documented somewhere, yes?

Even if [insert name of TPG] deactivates the cert number, there's a good chance the slabbed card will be out there. I see the value in a central repository, with images, for all these fake cards.

The Altered Card Database is a somewhat well-known (and frequently used) hobby tool. A section for fake slabbed cards would be an added dimension of utility...in my opinion, at least.

I add all cards that have been suspected of being altered, faked, mislabeled, or stolen.

There is not a specific section for fakes, but you can do a search for them.

I love seeing justice being served.

The hobby has no room for blatant scammers.

Thanks for posting the eBay link, always glad to educate myself on these.

Good reminder that just because a card is slabbed, doesn’t mean it’s authentic

It appears PSA has deactivated the cert #

First of all, no fraud artist would have sealed the card so crookedly. Sloppiness of that magnitude is a PSA hallmark.

But I don't understand how/why any fraudster would have added the black line around the player's photo. This card looks to be some other shyster's knockoff of these M101-5 cards that they used to sell their own product in 1916-17 without having to pay for the cards. So copyright infringement from over a century ago. Yes, there are other examples of this phenomenon. Outfits in the Philippines and other U.S. territorial possessions were often inclined to knock off American material and release it as their own.
