Use this PSA autograph COA lookup to verify a PSA or PSA DNA certificate number before you buy or sell signed memorabilia. PSA DNA is PSA’s autograph authentication service — enter the PSA authentication number or COA cert number (or scan a QR/photo with OCR when available) to check record availability in provider sources and view returned fields. Every verification includes Fraud Alert warnings for suspicious or compromised numbers. If no results appear, recheck digits and formatting — a mismatch can be a typo, the wrong provider selected, an unsupported lookup type, or a certificate that needs closer review.
Look for the certificate/COA number on the paperwork, sticker, or label provided with the item. PSA DNA certificates typically display the authentication number on the COA card. Use clear photos to avoid typos.
PSA DNA (now PSA Authentication) is PSA’s autograph authentication service. To check a PSA DNA certificate, enter the certificate number in the lookup above. The system checks record availability and returns any available authentication fields.
It may be a typo, wrong provider selection, unsupported lookup type, or a record that isn’t available in provider sources.
Camera scan and image OCR are supported for PSA autograph COA verification. Note: QR codes appear on PSA graded card slabs, not on autograph COAs. To verify a PSA graded card, use the PSA Graded Cards lookup.
Verify the number, compare it to listing photos, and request clearer COA/sticker images and seller documentation.
