I believe about 10 years ago these COAs came up a lot on ebay and it was found to be a whole slew of forged stuff, mostly Mantles, I remember seeing a discussion including Heroes of the Game here on Autograph Live.

Can someone else take a look at these and confirm forgeries before I (and hopefully others!) report the items as fakes? I'm sure the seller just doesn't know so not really their fault.

Forgeries

These are forgeries. COAs don't mean anything, so don't put too much stock in them. The exceptions are Upper Deck Authenticated, Beckett, JSA, Tristar, etc. But know how to verify these online. Scammers are now forging these COAs in bulk. When in doubt, post here and some of us can offer opinions. 

Below is a link to my blog on that Florida COA.

Yes, I saw that a while ago, I remembered it, and it was what connected the dots when I saw the listing. I reported the items, but seems that they are still listed. Sad that there are people watching it thinking they are going to get a 'bargain.'
