Use the certification lookup to check the slab record and the photograph to inspect the card. Neither replaces checking that the physical item agrees with the record.
Put this guide to work
Use the details you have confirmed to research your card. Leave uncertain fields unconfirmed.
Research your card →Two scans, two different jobs
A phone can point at the artwork on a slabbed card or at the code on the label. Those actions look similar, but the result should be read differently. A photo-recognition result suggests which card is pictured. A certification lookup returns information associated with a particular grading record.
Before doing either, decide what you need to know. If you want the set and parallel, inspect the issue details. If you want to check the label, use the grader’s own verification service. If you want a resale estimate, you will still need sales matching the company, service and grade.
The grade is not the certification number
Read the record beside the physical slab
For a PSA-graded item, use PSA’s official certification page and enter the number yourself if the code will not scan. Check that the record’s issue details and grade agree with the visible label and card. When images are available, examine them rather than treating a successful lookup as the end of the check.
PSA warns that real certification numbers can be copied onto counterfeit inserts. A matching number therefore confirms a database record, not every physical item displaying that number. A mismatch is a reason to investigate; a match is one piece of evidence.
The label may not tell the whole price story
A shortened label or listing title can omit details important to a search. Keep the card number, named parallel, serial stamp and autograph information where applicable. If the label and photograph appear to disagree, resolve that before choosing a price group.
Also distinguish a card grade from an autograph grade or other service designation. Do not copy a prominent “10” into the card-grade field without reading what the service actually graded. The number only helps when the meaning of the field is clear.
Build a comparison group for this graded item
Match the grading company and relevant numeric grade before using a sold price. A card graded by another company may be useful context, but it is not an interchangeable comp. The same is true of an ungraded copy or a different parallel.
Open the listing and verify the pictured label, item description and sale format. Separate lots and materially different issues. Record the sale date and currency, and keep shipping treatment consistent. If the available records are too thin, report that gap rather than borrowing a PSA 10 price for an unrelated grade.
What to do when the scan and the record disagree
Transcribe the number again and check the official site directly. A glare-obscured digit or a crop can produce an avoidable reading mistake. If the record still describes a different item, preserve the listing information and ask the seller or grading company for clarification through the appropriate channel.
Do not open the holder to settle the question. This article does not authenticate slabs or rank graders. Its purpose is to keep an identification shortcut from turning into a purchase or pricing conclusion that the evidence does not support.
Carduno is a related app promoted on WhatsMyCardWorth. A result from it or another scanner should be checked against the same official record and physical details. We do not claim that an app scan replaces a grader’s examination.

FAQ
Does a valid PSA certification number prove the slab is genuine?
No. PSA says certification verification does not eliminate counterfeit risk; compare the record with the physical card and holder.
Can I use a raw-card price for my slabbed card?
Keep it as context. For a direct graded comparison, match the company, service, grade and exact card version.
