Card Identification Forum

I would like to upload scans of a number of scarce to very rare cards that are not currently in the database, but some of them are graded by PSA and I am not going to crack them out of the holders.  Are there any exceptions to this rule of no scans in holders?  Some of these cards, few collectors are even aware of and it would benefit the hobby to have this info available.

You may be able to get acceptable images if your scanner is good enough to handle slabbed cards (a CCD like the Epson Perfection V600 is a great example) and if you crop out everything but the card (the rest of the slab and label absolutely shouldn't be included).

I will try that, thanks.

I've scanned a rare, encased card, and then cropped it. It wasn't great, but was better than nothing. Then I put an alert on it that it needed a new image.
