CGC Grading

To evaluate sports cards accurately and consistently, CGC Cards utilizes an industry-standard 10-point grading scale topped by a Gem Mint 10 and, for the best of the best, a Pristine 10. Cards that receive the CGC Pristine 10 grade, which is reserved exclusively for flawless cards under 10-times magnification, receive a special gold CGC Cards Pristine 10 label.

CGC Protection

CGC Cards protects graded sports cards by encapsulating them in CGC’s state-of-the-art holder. The CGC Cards holder and label combine enhanced security features, crystal-clear optics and the most advanced archival materials for the best in display and protection. Few who see the CGC Cards holder in hand dispute it is the industry’s best.
