Lelands Offers Extraordinary CDV Find Showing Baseball’s Beginnings

Hi XXXXX, I was recently told at the Chantilly show that you don't grade CDV's, now I see Lelands has a ton of CDV's that you have indeed graded. Mine were civil war era, and themed, not baseball, but not sure why that would make a difference. Also I was told you simply don't do them, not anything about just doing baseball. It's a little frustrating because this collection is in our current auction and I certainly would've preferred to have them slabbed!

Hi Scott,

Thanks for reaching out. We appreciate your support. Unfortunately, we currently do not grade CDV's. I'm sorry to disappoint.

Please let me know if you have any other questions and I'll be more than happy to help.

Have a great weekend!

Hi Scott,


We do not do the historical CDV's at all. The ones listed on Lelands auctions are baseball ones. These are done on a case by case basis. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thank you!
