First-ever CGC x JSA On-site Authentication Event in London Announced for February 2025
Posted on 1/17/2025
For the first time, JSA is offering autograph authentication services at the office of the Certified Collectibles Group – International UK Limited (CCG UK) on February 6-7, 2025. During this event, JSA will authenticate autographed memorabilia on-site at CCG UK’s London office before heading to the London Card Show, February 8-9, where reps will provide autograph services in addition to accepting grading submissions to the CCG companies: CGC (comics and magazines), NGC (coins) and PMG (paper money).
Note: Cards cannot be accepted at the London Card Show at this time. Cards can still be submitted to CCG UK's London Office.
Submit autographed memorabilia to the London office
Both collectors and dealers can take advantage of submitting autographed memorabilia to the London office for JSA authentication. Submissions will be accepted by appointment on a first-come, first-served basis. Please note that submission capacity is limited; if your on-site submission cannot be completed during the February event, you will have the option to have the submission returned unauthenticated.
The price for JSA autograph authentication for memorabilia is per the JSA fee schedule. Fees written in USD will be converted to GBP at a rate of $1.20 to £1.00, and an additional 20% VAT will be applied. All payments should be made to a CGC x JSA representative at the London office or at the London Card Show. (For more information about submitting at the show, see below.)
Submissions for the JSA on-site authentication event in February must be received before 5:00 p.m. on February 5, 2025. Starting on February 8, submitters will be notified when their collectibles are ready to be picked up.

Submit at the London Card Show
After the on-site event at CCG UK’s London office, JSA is headed to the London Card Show, happening February 8-9 at the Sandown Racecourse. The London Card Show is Europe’s largest card event, boasting more than 800 tables filled with TCGs, sports cards, non-sports cards and other collectibles. The show also offers interactive activities for all ages, including a main stage for events, a kids zone, a retro gaming zone and more.
Show attendees can submit autographed memorabilia for authentication, and JSA is offering a special £15 promotional rate for any autograph signed at the show. Plus, don’t miss the opportunity to drop off comics, magazines, coins and banknotes for expert grading by CGC, NGC and PMG, respectively. Regular grading fees and turnaround times apply.
Submit to CGC, NGC and PMG for grading
All regular submissions will be shipped with insurance to the companies’ headquarters in Sarasota, Florida, for grading. After grading, submissions are shipped back to the companies’ London office (again with insurance) to be returned to submitters. Please complete submission forms in advance to accompany the collectibles being submitted.
Important: CGC cannot accept submissions of TCGs, sports cards and non-sports cards at the London Card Show.
