Okay - I've staffed this up now as there are more developers available currently w the economy and virus where they area. So now what I really need is an abundance of training data. In this case I'd like as many high res scans of 32 Goudey cards as possible. It's best if they are raw but I'll take whatever for now - if others have fake Goudeys (and reprints like Gelasso) I'd appreciate that as well. I can download to a folder so long as your site allows high res downloads. Ill also scour the BST section but if someone has a scanned raw set - that would
be super helpful.


As a refresher - I'm building a CV app as a side project that will try to detect fake/reprint Goudey cards as a POC. I have 5 or 6 markers for real cards and I can score most of these using machine vision - the output would basically be a confidence level that the card is real. This could eventually turn into card grading but for now I'm biting off a more manage problem...

way to get you high res scans?

Here's a drive link/

Any high res scans of 1933 Goudey cards are most welcome.


Once we get initial marker scores - I'll share results. As a preview - one marker is the "G.G.g stamp being a solid non press mark even at high magnification. So for a real card you might get a stamp value of .95. We have 4 or 5 other markers which need to average say .75 to say w confidence the card is real. I'd like to get it working w a decent iPhone camera in an actual app - but high res scans will make it much easier to get consistent results for a POC.

Thanks!

Congrats on getting this thing going. It is an incredibly noble and admirable pursuit, and I wish you all the luck in the world. Hopefully this is a new starting point in what will be a new era of ethical authentication. Collectors need an entity that they can trust without any fear of favoritism, incompetence, censorship and other such self-serving interests.

Best of luck... once the system is up and running, you can count on me to be a customer!
