Mickey Mantle autographed cachet opinions

[GUCD231]

Well I am looking for opinions on the auto as I know theres plenty of members who would do a better job than PSA.So lmk what you think as I have seen a few of these and the autograph looks legit to me but again what do I know.Thanks,Steve.

It's the real deal. Although his auto is commonly forged, most fakes are easy to spot. Plus, nobody would bother to fake his auto on a postcard. They would go for a big ticket item like a ball or bat. Something that would bring more money.

Hey bud thanks for the opinion.Just curious but what would you price this at?I believe PSA charges $100 just to authenticate his auto.

I'd say at least $150. I've seen tons of real postcards and such go for $150-$200. His baseballs, on the other hand, go for $300+.

Sounds fair enough as I don't think you would get your money back after having it authenticated by PSA.

Surprisingly, his stuff sells pretty well even if it's not authenticated.

That is surprising.Thanks again for your help.

Just wanted to throw my two cents in there as well...I've seen a lot of Mantle authentic autos and a handful of fakes, and this looks 100% real to me. Great item.
