I’ve also seen my share of fake Michael Jackson and fake Madonna autographs with the backing of PSA and Beckett.

The latter part of your comment makes me think that PSA’s claim of “thoroughly examined” might be a bit exaggerated.

Indeed James! That example was JSA. Sad really - it's printed right in the photo even if the collector doesn't know his subject. Enough dropped balls to cause a car wreck.

I think PSA got it right. One of the main tells, in my opinion, is that the continuation of McCartney after the second "C" (or after the "Ca" if that's what it is supposed to be), is a separate stroke. It's not a continuation of the C or A, which is normal, and it is not quickly signed. It's a deliberate start of the rest of McCartney.

This one is authentic in my opinion. Although the the 3rd hump in the M is the highest , it still looks good. It is all very spot on. There is one problem with PSA and Beckett: If it's not a classic autograph by Paul, they will probably say it's not authentic. This autograph reminds me of my Paul that I got in person. 

 

Based on the AU portion and shape of the M, I would also say that PSA and Beckett got it right. The P can throw you off because the shape looks pretty good and the initial upstroke is something you usually see only in authentic examples.

what do you think of this one compared to the one in the OP?

To be completely honest, pretty damn close.

For interest, here are a couple of similar in person attained Maccas, but with a single ‘C’
