Finally got a response back from PSA! Sounds a little promising but not sure if they send similar responses to everyone who submits a research request. Next step is to send some of them in so their team do their research on it. I have 39 of these cards but don’t want to submit all of them in case the package gets stolen or lost. Any suggestions on how many I should send them to do their research? If I send too little, they may come back with something inconclusive.

I’d suggest 5 or 10 and not graded just authenticated. Bring it on!

Most people have sent in singular versions in the past so if you sent 5 to show its a repeating thing, it probably wouldnt hurt. After they determine authenticity then Id send more (after breaking a few off for forum members :sweat_smile:). Unless your plan is to grade them all anyways in which case maybe 10 wouldnt hurt.

This is super cool. I made an account just to to follow the updates lol. I’ve never been able to get my hands on a Silver W… They’re practically impossible to ID on eBay.

OP if you ever want to sell a copy, please keep me in mind :grin:

I’d be interested in one as well, as I have all the W stamps in my binder. Remember who told you to go to PSA COUGH (Jk)

Can’t wait to see these recognized.

This version deserves a true variant designation. :wstamp: :folded_hands:

That’s really cool. I’d also love a copy if one is available. Really hard to ID properly on eBay

I would send in 5 copies to have them evaluate them. Then send 10 at a time from there to prevent risk of losing them all in 1 package, considering how rare they are

There is a much easier way to go about this; But we all know what this thread is.

See you guys in 6 months on the auction.

Is there a market value on these? Feel like ebay fluctuates on whichever stamps from $60 to like $450 on ebay sold

Just an update for anyone following this thread. I’ve been busy with work but finally entered all the details for the PSA submission. I just need to find the free time to package everything up and mail the cards out to them. I decided to go with sending out 14 silver stamps and 1 gold stamp. I included the gold stamp in case they need one to compare to. Ironically, I originally cracked it from a PSA slab to add to my binder collection but at least they’d have one that they originally graded themselves to compare the silver stamps with. It may take a while to come back with the results but I’m keeping my fingers crossed!

Sums it up perfectly! Looks like an estimated date of Nov 11. At least it moved to Research.

2 months for reaearch? Lol

Its over 2 weeks now for QA checks. Cards are sitting there already graded and not moving. PSA is very inconsistent on TAT. Sent 2 orders in a week apart and they come back a month apart

Very cool man! Keep me in the loop on these! I love when something new happens with vintage cards! PSA loves to keep you guessing though…
