How much is a signed baseball of Mickey Mantle that has been autographed twice on the same ball with a picture of him worth?

Mickey Mantle signed fotoballIt sound like you might have a Mickey Mantle signed fotoball that also features a stamped signature.. A mickey Mantle signed baseball is worth about $500.- $800. with the proper authenticity. If it's signed twice it might sell for more if you find enough collectors interested, but it might be viewed as more of a novelty. If it is a Mickey Mantle signed Fotoball it might have a lower value as it would not display as nice as a collectors preferred Major League baseball. Signatures that have not been properly authenticated could sell at half the market value or less.
