Thanks for your comment Tim. What you describe is the goal, and I do presume SGC is quite good at other types of authentication.

At this point in time, I don't think they and others have been carefully checking faces, etc. They are either putting too much faith in consignors, or, as in this case, going with what appears to be vintage identifications on the piece without confirmation.

I would also say, that like grading and authenticating cards, it requires a particular type of knowledge and set of resources.

I think Brian Dwyer appreciates the problem.
