Pedigree

A pedigree can be added to the certification label to indicate a card's past or present ownership. To pedigree a card to a previous owner, that collector or collection must be considered to be significant by CGC Cards and sufficient documentation must be provided to confirm the requested pedigree. You can pedigree a card to yourself, typically without providing any documentation.

CrossOver
(Also select a grading tier)

A card in a PSA, Beckett* or SGC holder is evaluated for CGC Cards certification. The card will be removed from its holder and encapsulated by CGC Cards only if CGC Cards believes that the card will receive a grade that is the same or higher than the grade assigned by the other grading service. If CGC Cards believes the card does not meet its standards for the grade, it will be returned in its original holder and the full grading fee will still apply. Cross at Any Grade: If you would like your PSA, Beckett* or SGC-holdered card certified by CGC Cards even if CGC Cards determines that it will receive a lower grade, specify CROSS AT ANY GRADE. *CGC Cards treats Beckett BCCG encapsulated cards as raw cards. BCCG cards will be removed from their holders and crossed at any grade.
