Just saw this 1/1 Messi auto from this year. The LEO and loop look way different than before. Thoughts?

Does this messi appear to actually have been signed by him?

I'm still gutted that the 2018 Eminence Messi's are all fakes.

I've been slowly cobbling together a full set, and I'm so hesitant to pay/wait for a Messi knowing they are all snide.

So, are both versions of fakes done by messi’s brother and not panini screwing us over with some doing the signings?

Hesitant? Isn’t it an outright pass?

I used to be in the camp that they could still be real.....but after all the research and detective work seen in here....I now believe they are all signed by his brother or another family member.

This led me to get rid of both of my "iffy" autographs which included an Eminence auto/patch. As said in this thread....it doesn't get talked about a ton in the high end soccer groups because so much money is invested in them.

Basically, you now have to assume two things:

- Few, if any, Messi autos were actually signed by him....
- the authenticator are clueless when it comes to Messi autos

You CANNOT assume that a Messi auto is authentic just because it's in a PSA/BGS?SGC holder.....

That’s not true at all. There are a million different videos of him signing stuff in-person and the questionable signatures are clear and obvious and primarily contained to a specific timeframe.

when you are calling out someone for exaggerating, it's probably not best to lead with 'there's a million videos of Messi signing...'

lol

the only autos of his I 100% trust are Noir or Flawless

I said nothing about exaggeration. He wasn't exaggerating. He made a statement and I corrected it.

I never questioned this one since it seems like his typical loop and not the "triangle" L formation from the Eminence but.. this is a authentic auto right? lol
