Authenticity is Everything

Willie Mays authentic?

I'm interested in buying this Willie Mays ball that comes with the Say Hey Holo. I know that COA is not the most trust worthy and has a lot of forgeries. With that being said, does this item look authentic? Thanks in advance.

I'm no expert on Mays. But that looks pretty good. The Say Hey hologram doesn't mean much. There are a lot of bad forgeries with the hologram. I posted about a bat a friend of mine purchased at a charity auction with the same hologram. It was garbage. But Steiner has sold balls with the hologram and Steiner is solid. Maybe somebody who knows Mays better than me will chime in. I've attached the pic of the garbage forgery with the hologram.

If this one is authentic its a less than desirable version. I would not it in my collection. There are many others out there that are better examples for reasonable prices. I would pass on this.
