All,

I just recently joined the site. I found a link through Net54. I have been avidly reading as many baseball posts as I can as I have quite a few autographed baseballs. I, like many others here have been duped by being ignorant about them. I am trying to learn as much as I can to ensure I don't have that happen again. I have located a ball that I wanted to get some opinions on. Thanks

The item has been removed from eBay...

My link must be broken as I just pulled it up on my phone. The seller had initally stated in his desription that there was a COA but it wasn't pictured. So I messaged him about it and he posted a picture of it this morning. It wasn't a COA but an estimate of value. The item number is 171842933283. Sorry I can't fix the link as I am at work and can't access EBay.

Just remember, the signature speaks volumes compared to any COA. I highly advise to post anything you may consider buying here, as there are a few Mantle experts on this site. Good luck!

I just pulled it up on eBay - IMO its authentic.

I must be really lucky or a quick learner. I will wait to see if any more chime in. Corey, would you post a picture or fix my link for me?

wow..that's news in itself. E-Bay pulled a Mickey Mantle ball? They haven't pulled a Fake Nickey Mantle ball in going on 2 YEARS. Can we start giving Kudos to E-bay or continue to AVOID like the plague because they sell a BOATLOAD of Mantle Forgeries with GFA..GAI GA...anything with G.

I think the last Mantle Ball E-bay pulled was Chris Williams ball...AND IT was REAL!!!!!!!!!

Check it out now. It's still there. My original link must have been broken.

well that didn't take long...

I like the Mantle ball that has been re-posted!

Fudd,

I believe the ball was never pulled. The link was broken. I read the thread you referenced about CW's Mantle ball that was pulled and don't think this is the same. Thanks for your opinion on this ball.

Fudd, isn't that ironic-the last Mantle they removed was my authentic Mickey Mantle.

Estimated value...I love when dufas's do this...Compare @, Valued @. Good rule of thumb is that those are FORGERIES.

Welcome Rick and Good luck out there.
