I agree.  

Odd to find a forged Nolan Ryan.

There is no shortage of Nolan Ryan autographs.

Sure got me on that one.  I wouldn't want it, but I still don't like it.

He claims JSA certed it, but I still don't like it.

I don't care what JSA opined on this, I believe its a forgery.   Look at the R.  look at the relationship between the descender of the "y" and the large upper half of the "R".  Then look at authentic versions.   Huge difference and I cannot find another one that looks like this.

I agree.  

Maybe the OP can post the JSA cert.

Did the OP delete his "JSA certed" comment?

Yes. Not sure why. I have a copy on my phone. They automatically get emailed but when I clicked on it, it said reply has been deleted.

Here is what the OP posted:

This ball is in my personal collection, authenticated by JSA.  I'll assume it's real since Ryan is such a popular autograph.  I would put him in the category that is JSA's "bread and butter" of authe...

Hey guys!  I'm not sure why my comment was deleted.  I'm new on here, and I think I accidentally deleted the comment while trying to edit it.  Yes, the Ryan ball is certified.  I too, have concerns with it.  It doesn't look like most of the examples.  I was able to find one example that was close on eBay, it too was certified by JSA.  I'm torn.  I know JSA makes mistakes, but I'd think they'd get a Ryan right.  Maybe not!  

Anyway, sorry for the confusion in my comments.  Thanks for the input!
