Stolen cert numbers for this card

PSA deactivated all 3. A slab that shows any of these numbers is on the stolen list. Each number opens in the cert checker, and PSA beside it opens PSA's own page for that cert.

If you are offered this slab

  1. Do not buy it, and do not confront the seller.
  2. Write down the cert number, the listing or the seller's name, and where and when you saw it.
  3. Report it. The Santa Ana Police Department and the FBI are investigating, and PSA asks for tips to go to them.

A thief can crack a card out of its slab and sell it raw, so a valuable copy of this card with no cert is not in the clear. Ask where it came from.
