The New Verification Of Authenticity GFA Rocchi

Below is another Mickey Mantle obvious and laughable forgery with a COA from Guaranteed Forensic Authenticators headed by Steve Rocchi.

It is listed by Ebay seller Coinfinder58 who has sold numerous other Mantle, DiMaggio and Williams forgeries.

But let's take a look at the new Guaranteed Forensic Authenticators (GFA) "Verification Of Authenticity."

Here it is, and it is as laughable as the Mickey Mantle forgeries that GFA certs.

Below is the Mickey Mantle forgery certed by Steve Rocchi and GFA. This is laughable.

Let's get back to the "Verification Of Authenticity."

The wannabe autograph collectors on EBay fall hook, line and sinker for bullcrap like the above.

I want someone to prove to me that Steve Rocchi had anything to do with autographs while at PSA.

We've posted hundreds of forgeries that Steve Rocchi and his GFA group have certed over the years, and who knows how many thousands of Mantle, DiMaggio and Williams forgeries that Steve Rocchi and his GFA group have "authenticated" the last five years.

I've always written "The only people who buy and sell this crap are scammers and people who have ZERO knowledge of autographs."

Ahh the ol' "Switch up the COA" technique. Same turd, different toilet.

Is this an online COA or a paper copy? The picture is so small, it has to hard to verify if the pic matches the auto. I have spent quite a bit of time reading up on threads on this site. I just read the thread involving GFA. Thanks for all the info. It will help me make better decisions on autographs.
