REGISTRY LOOKUP · UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Registry lookup is under construction.

We are reviewing certification records and photographs. Public searches are temporarily unavailable while these updates are completed.

Certification search will return when the registry review is complete. Please check back for updates.

THE IGC STANDARD

The grade lives in the details.

IGC condition reviews are built around the physical characteristics collectors inspect most closely. The goal is consistency, clear documentation, and a grade that can be understood—not just displayed.

C
01

Centering

Front and back alignment, border balance, image placement, and overall visual symmetry.

C
02

Corners

Sharpness, touches, wear, fraying, softness, and structural integrity under close inspection.

E
03

Edges

Whitening, chipping, rough cuts, edge wear, and consistency across all four sides.

S
04

Surface

Scratches, print defects, dimples, staining, gloss, indentations, and visible surface flaws.

Certification ID

A unique number tied to the registered card and holder.

02

Original Images

Front and back card photography retained with the record.

03

Card Identity

Player, year, set, card number, parallel, and serial number.

04

Condition Detail

Overall IGC grade plus supporting category assessments where recorded.

05

Registry Status

Active, sold, reholdered, retired, or corrected certification states.

06

Integrity Control

Registry matching helps expose mismatched numbers or altered holders.

FUTURE REVERSE LABEL CONCEPT

A new look for a future release.

This black reverse label is an updated design concept for future IGC slabs. The pictured QR artwork is illustrative; it does not verify a card. The example front and reverse numbers are not a matched certification.

  • IGC identity remains immediately visible.
  • Front label keeps the card identity and grade visible.
  • Number lookup is under construction; QR scanning is planned for future slabs.
ABOUT IGC

Integrity Grading Company (IGC) is a proprietary collectible-card evaluation, certification, and encapsulation brand.

IGC currently evaluates select cards owned by or offered through its affiliated seller and does not accept public grading submissions. The registry is being reviewed and public lookup is under construction.

IGC certification is not an appraisal and does not guarantee market value, future resale value, authenticity by another service, or the grade another grading company may assign.
