PSA Cert Verification - Needs Actual Picture of Card

PSA should include a picture of the actual card for the cert#. That way even if they counterfeit the card, the buyer can compare the card for sale vs. the actual picture on the Cert Verification site.

    This would be a great addition! It is fairly common on the coin side (PCGS). PCGS has an extra service many of you may know called True View. https://pcgs.com/trueview. It is an additional $10 at any service level or is included at their gold shield submission level. I think it is a great idea for the added security, but PSA needs to see the demand to warranty the expense in equipment and personnel. Would not want graders imaging, right. :wink:

    Here is a link to a coin in my registry with the coin imaged on the cert verification page. https://pcgs.com/cert/35050943

    I would rather have them add to the grading fee and require it for all cards than offer it as an option. Provides a lot more value to the cert and more protection than any other anti counterfeiting measures possibly could. Could be part of the fee of a re-holder as well.

    I saw something in their instagram story recently that leads me to believe that they're working on this for cards. Very exciting if true.

    Dusk storage on the cloud is cheap. High res scanners that can scan quickly are also available. For a reasonable, non-gouging added fee per card this would be well worth it.
