Letter of Authenticity

This service is for an extensive in-person examination of your item for a Letter of Authenticity, the ultimate SWAU seal of approval for your prized collectible. If you are not able to send in your item, check out our Online Autograph Verification Service. Once the item is deemed authentic, a SWAU Letter of Authenticity will be issued picturing your item, result, grade, and certification number.

Cutting-Edge Technology

Each Letter of Authenticity features tamper-proof ink, invisible security fibers, and over a dozen anti-counterfeit features. If requested, each item can be affixed with our state-of-the-art SWAU hologram, packed with over a dozen additional anti-counterfeit features, ensuring a lifetime of protection for your valuable collectibles.

Domestic (USA) items are typically authenticated and shipped back to you in less than 2-4 weeks! Return times vary depending on our team's availability and are not guaranteed; however, we strive to return your items as quickly as possible.
