Authenticity is Everything
Beckett "Did Not Pass" my Authentic Jordan - What?! - Pics Attached
Back around 1990 I mailed this basketball card to the Bulls requesting Jordan's autograph. Two years later the signed card came back in my mailbox. Awesome!!!
It's now 30 years later and I sent it to Beckett for grading. I spent well over $100 between the fees, insurance, and shipping. They claim the autograph is "not authentic". If a secretary or robot or something signed the card I imagine it would not have taken two years to get back to me. I'll paste a picture of the autograph below.
From 0 to 10 how likely is this an authentic Jordan signature? 0 is "not authentic". 10 is "authentic". What is the most plausible story to what happened?

Not his autograph or close. At best secretarial IMO

Thanks for the replies. Any obvious tells for why it's not authentic? I must really be a rookie, when I put it next to authentic autographs it looks very similar to me.

Slowly signed, size of the auto is wrong, lacks natural flow and the overall structure is just off. Through the mails can take years to come back sometimes. I sent one in 2003 to Stewart Copeland of the Police which took 9 years to come back and Jordan would have received endless letters so would not be able to reply to all
