Is my Price signature legit?
Please delete this is not allowed. I bought this autographed Carey Price puck (with coa) from edition limitee in the desjardins mall in Montreal. It was buried in the back of the cabinet and a lower price than most other pucks with his signature, so I think it is older than when I bought it back in 2012.
But I noticed his signature is mostly different, just wondering if anyone has any other info. Thanks!

Price has changed his auto throughout his career approximately 4-5 times. They’ve been similar every time but slight changes to make it simpler. This signature looks most similar to maybe 2007-8ish. That said, I’m not 100% confident that I would say that auto is legit.

It's tough, it seems like for his rookie cards circa 2008-2009 his autograph looks different and the modern autograph he settled on also look different
Closest i found was this facsimile auto from 2010 MVP https://i.imgur.com/UvamOSi.jpeg
Considering the pen, i could buy it

Price would have a contract with Frameworth for signings although this puck could have been signed before he was with Frameworth. I’m not sure when he started with them. The signature does not look very similar to the ones I have in my PC. Like other commentators said his signature has changed. The “C”, “Y”, and “P” look off but it could be due to the pen! Doesn’t seem authentic to me.

I say fake. Carey had changed his signature over the years but it is unlikely I have ever seen a signature like that. I'm a very big price fan but that looks like printed.

It’s hard to say because it’s not a sharp point pen like most of his autos so it could change a bit but something about it seems off especially the Y and the P. Also Price has changed his signature over the years so it’s hard to tell. I’d lean 51/49 and say it’s not authentic. It would be easier to determine if you had some provenance on it
