RE: Opinions on a sale price
It all depends on the COA with the ball (assuming there is one). The fair value could also have some impact if the ball is anything other than a standard MLB ball. For instance an official All-Star game ball from this year would be worth more since he was the MVP of the game, and a Chinese made "Official League Ball" would be worth somewhat less since it is not a real Official Major League Ball.

It has a Coa by global authentics. I can't tell what type of ball it is. Looks like an official ball but I'll have to message and ask

Yes....but is it Amercian or National League? I wouldn't want a Trout auto on a NL ball.

RE: Opinions on a sale price
Oh...it's crazy but they do.... It's just the stamp on the ball. I assume his sig is on the "sweet spot" anyway. If it's a NL ball, just wait until he's playing for the Phils in 2020...before selling it! LOL.
Seriously, some folks are sticklers (like me) for that sort of thing...and the appropriate discount should be expected if it's the wrong league.

RE: Opinions on a sale price
If it's an Official Major League Baseball from Rawlings, it's good. I think they may have now done away with the league stamp variations (not all-star or WS though).....sorry for my mis-leading you. Just looked at a recent one of mine signed at a show. Thinking in terms of older signed baseballs.
