When you submit an item for authentication, it enters our rigorous multi-stage review process. Initial photo assessment is conducted by category specialists who verify compliance with our shooting guidelines. Qualified submissions then undergo detailed analysis by two independent specialists who must reach consensus before a certificate is issued. Disputed or complex cases are escalated to our senior review board for final determination.
This redundant verification system, combined with our specialists' deep expertise, enables us to maintain accuracy rates that exceed industry standards. We document every assessment with detailed photographic evidence and written analysis, creating a permanent record that supports our certification.
