If you haven't done so, start with the database at Tiffany Cards, not necessarily to search for your specific cards, but to see if they are adjacent to outed cards and therefore likely submitted by the same folks who subbed outed cards. It's at least one point of information.

Another thing that can be done is to check VCP to see if that card sold previously and if it was from a suspicious source. Short of knowing someone who has a great eye for detecting alterations or being able to do that yourself, this is about as good as you can do. We all might have to accept that we have altered cards in our collections. You can drive yourself nuts to the point where you no longer enjoy collecting.

PSA cert lookup also sometimes identifies prior sales. It would tell you, for example, if the initial sale was in PWCC.
I understand it is not 100 percent reliable, but again, it's data.

I agree with previous posts where the hobby may lead, Psa 10 collectors are a different world, rare card and pre war collectors strive to a 4 grade at best. I would always be suspect for any grade higher. Big borders, tobacco stains, and used edges will become the premium cards for cards in the future.
