Donald Trump Signed Hat Opinions

Background on this, bought it off Mercari 4 months ago for $370 (She originally wanted $700 but gradually came down). Seller said her husband works as a maintenance man at the Trump Intl Golf Course in West Palm Beach and got it there. Geographically, her address is 15 mins from the course so that story sort of checks out. She hasn't sold any other Trump stuff, just a bunch of clothes from what I can see, aside from a Trump pen. I think it's legit and the few opinions I got a while back on SCN said 'good if it's live ink.' It is indeed live ink but wanted to ask people in here what they though before I invest another $150 or so in sending it to PSA. Thanks in advance for your opinions.

Looks legit to me and has a rather nice signature too. Most of these I see are rushed in persons. Since this was signed for a maintenance worker it makes sense why it has a nice full signature. Congrats! 

One suggestion when getting it authenticated; Please have the authentication sticker placed on the LOA.

I appreciate the response! Will definitely get the sticker on the letter.

Mercari is one of the worst places to buy autographs. Last I checked, almost everything of value I saw that I knew was fake. Real ones like that typically sell for the low-thousands. The ones you find in the price range you paid often come with a COA like this one:

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP HAND SIGNED AUTOGRAPHED MAGA HAT 45-47 Flag COA HOLOGRAM - Picture 1 of 9

It's on eBay for $355 OBO, and there are tons more at similar prices and same worthless COA.

I won't give an opinion on authenticity because I don't know Trump's autograph well enough.

Thanks, Steve. Yeah, the fact that it was on Mercari was exactly what made me a little weary.

Steve is correct and I agree, but this one is a one in a million, at a very good price.  The one in Steve's response is a joke

Thanks Terrier and everyone. I'll send off to PSA and report back what they say.
