    The Blacklight/UV light tricks works on most cards. There's some older 4 series cert numbers that don't have the blacklight PSA logos on the front, but they're on the back.

    After looking online, i have the lighthouse label psa case back in 2017. the psa UV holo on the front does not exist yet and replaced by a light house effect with NASDAQ:CLCT. The 6 UV psa logos still exist on the back.

      Hey i just recently purchased a psa slab that is also from this era (the psa lookup number starts with 42xxxxxx). I couldn't find the UV holo and it also shows NASDAQ:CLCT on the PSA holo stickers on front and back. Do you guys know why the UV holo on the front top didn't exist for 2017? Couldn't find any PSA articles on it but glad I found this comment almost thought I bought a really accurate fake.

    So I have some tickets I submitted to PSA years ago. It has the same label, no not the super old one. The black light doesn’t have the light strip at the top and I submitted 3 tickets to PSA myself. Obviously there not fake but I would assume this is before they did the UV thing. The back of the case the the PSA logos does light up.
