It has been encapsulated and authenticated by PSA. Berg played for 15 seasons in the Major Leagues (1923, 1926-39) and later served as a spy for the Office of Strategic Services during World War II. Berg embarked on spy missions overseas, he was occasionally employed by the CIA. Berg was awarded the Medal of Freedom by President Herbert Hoover in 1946. He refused to receive the medal, however.
