Authenticity

 
Charity Grow makes hundreds of incredible autographed auction items available to our charity partners. Each one of these unique pieces is subjected to a rigorous forensic examination and certified authentic by a highly credentialed, independent forensic questioned document examination firm.

All Charity Grow’s autographed pieces include a third-party-issued
Certificate of Authenticity with a matching numbered hologram.
They are permanently registered in an easily accessible online database
for your winning bidders to cross reference at any time.

Independence: The firm that issues Certificates of Authenticity for Charity Grow’s autographed auction items is not engaged in the collectibles industry in any way. They do not now, nor have they ever, bought or sold autographed collectibles.

Quality: The most cutting-edge technologies in forensic handwriting analysis are utilized in examining every autographed auction item offered by Charity Grow. We partner with a firm on the vanguard of innovation in the field of forensic examination.

Qualifications: The lead forensic questioned document examiner for the issuing firm is a highly decorated commanding officer with the New York Police Department (NYPD) who retired after 24 years of service with distinction. He has trained hands on in live forensic examination environments with the same signature document examiners, handwriting analysts and forensic experts who train the FBI and IRS, as well as the U.S. Department of Defense and Secret Service.

Credibility: The Certificate of Authenticity that accompanies Charity Grow’s autographed auction items is recognized at every major auction house in the world.
