I got Legacy Authentication to verify a signed Darts shirt I had purchased online. The service was quick and easy and the COA was received in no time .
Great price, I will be using again.

I submitted a boxing piece that I couldn't sell as I had lost the original COA! The verification process was easy to follow and with Legacy Authentications COA I sold the item straight away.
