TAG cert lookup: check a TAG Grading cert

Look up a TAG cert here: the card’s own record at my.taggrading.com/card with the number, and the loss register. Then match the slab: card, grade, images.

The short answer

To check a TAG cert, open TAG’s own record for the number: my.taggrading.com/card/ followed by the cert number as printed on the slab, letters and digits. TAG says the same record opens when you scan the QR code on the slab. The record should match the slab in front of you: the card’s name, set, card number and variation, the grade, and TAG’s own front and back images of the card.

A match tells you TAG graded that card under that number, and when. TAG’s record carries more than most: the date the card was graded, centring and dimensions, the defects TAG found, and high-resolution images of the slabbed card. It does not tell you who holds the card now, where it has been since, or what it is worth.

Look it up at the source: TAG’s own cert lookup (opens in a new tab). Or enter the number in the free Brich House cert check at the top of this page, which links you to the same record and shows whether the cert has an open report in our loss register.

Step by step

  1. 01Find the number. TAG prints no paper label: the grade, the card’s data and the cert number are inscribed inside the slab. Read the number off the slab itself, letters and digits as printed, not off a listing photograph or a cropped screenshot.
  2. 02Open TAG’s record yourself. Type my.taggrading.com/card/ into the browser and add the cert number. Or enter the number at brich.house/check, which builds the same link. TAG says the QR code on the slab opens the same record; on a slab you do not yet trust, typing the address is the surer route.
  3. 03Match the card. The player or character, the set, the card number, the subset and the variation, and the grade. One field that differs from the slab is enough to stop and ask.
  4. 04Compare the images. TAG’s record carries front and back images of the slabbed card, with a slider that shows surface detail. Set them beside the slab: the corners, the centring, the surface and the inscription itself.
  5. 05Read the measurements. The record shows centring front and back, the card’s height and width, and the defects TAG identified by corner, edge and surface. These were measured on the day of grading; a card that reads differently in hand is a reason to ask.
  6. 06Read the dates. TAG’s record shows the date the card was graded and the as-of date of its population and ranking figures. The grading date is the earliest line of the card’s record; keep it with your own.
  7. 07Read the watch. The free cert check shows whether the same cert has an open report in the Brich House loss register. For TAG numbers the platform vault index our watch reads carries none, so the register and TAG’s own record are the two checks.
  8. 08Keep the result. Save the record page with the date you opened it, with photographs of the slab front and back. It is the first line of the card’s record in your hands.
  9. 09If the lookup shows no record. Check the letters and digits, and that the slab is a TAG slab rather than another grader’s. If the number is right and nothing comes back, read what a deactivated cert means.

What this check does not prove

  • Who holds the card now. A cert records the card and the grade on the day it was graded. It says nothing about who has held the card since, or how it got to the seller.
  • That the slab in hand is the one graded. The lookup checks a number. A label can be printed to copy a real one, so the card, the label and any images on the record have to match the slab in front of you.
  • What the card is worth. A grade is not a price. The lookup says nothing about value, and neither does this guide.
  • Ownership. A matching record does not show who owns the card or whether the seller can pass title to it. That is a question for the seller, in writing.

Questions

Where is TAG’s official cert lookup?
TAG publishes each card’s record at my.taggrading.com/card/ followed by the cert number. We have not found a separate lookup form on TAG’s public pages; the home page of the portal asks for a sign-in, but the record page itself opened without an account when we read it. TAG’s site says the report can be reached by scanning the QR code on the slab or by looking up the cert number.
What does a TAG record show?
On the record we read: the player or character, the set and card number, the subset and variation, the grade, the cert number, TAG’s population and ranking figures with their as-of date, the date the card was graded, centring front and back, the defects TAG identified by corner, edge and surface, the card’s height and width, and front and back images of the slabbed card that can be downloaded.
Where is the cert number on a TAG slab?
TAG prints no paper label. It says the grade and the card’s data are inscribed inside the clear slab itself, on what it calls the tag, with the cert number among them. Read the number off the slab, not off a listing photograph.
The QR code opened a page. Is that enough?
A QR code opens whatever address it holds. On a slab you do not yet trust, type my.taggrading.com/card/ and the number yourself, and compare the page the QR code opened with the one you typed. TAG also describes a security feature embedded in every slab that a smartphone can read; that is TAG’s check of the slab, separate from the record.
What if there is no record?
Check the letters and digits, and that the slab is a TAG slab rather than another grader’s. If the number is right and nothing comes back, the page does not say why. Read what a deactivated cert means before anything moves.
Is the Brich House cert check the same as TAG’s lookup?
No. Brich House has no affiliation with TAG, and TAG does not endorse this page. TAG’s own lookup is the source of truth for what it graded. Our free cert check links you to it, and also shows whether the cert has an open report in the Brich House loss register.
