SGC authenticated signed cards featured the same style flip as the normal grading service for almost a decade and the red flip has barely been around two years. They began authenticating w/JSA in 2004-2005 and used the top two styles during that time frame. The partnership dissolved in 2012 and JSA aligned with Beckett. In 2013 SGC announced their own authentication service and in 2014 rebranded with the red auto flip (when they changed the regular flip style and collectors rioted.)

Personally I hate the Red the flips... A fair chunk of my signed 58 set is in old green flips and I'd love to be able to collect it that way. I love SGC but the red with the gaskets looks ugly IMO.

Time-frame for SGC auto flips clockwise from top left:

Zernial - 2005 to 2009/2010
Astroth - 2010 to 2012
Bench - 2013/Early 2014
Alston - Mid 2014 to Present Day
