About DMD Grading
Affordable luxury. Transparent proof. We grade for everybody — because every card deserves the truth.
Who We Are
DMD Grading (Diamint Dynasty Grading) is a Canadian card-grading company built on integrity, precision, and community trust. We’re collectors first — hobbyists who wanted a grading standard that treats every card with proof and respect.
Our team blends technology with craft so that every decision is explainable, measurable, and repeatable — never guesswork.
- Community-first: built with and for collectors and shops.
- Proof-based: photo/video evidence accompanies every grade.
- Premium presentation: optical-grade PMMA slabs with QR authentication.
- Fair CAD pricing: transparent, predictable, Canada-wide.
What We Do
We grade trading cards with scientific precision using calibrated optics, measured centering, and a 7-Category System tuned for TCGs, sports, and specialty cards. Each submission includes:
- Photo + video proof of what our graders observed
- QR-coded digital report for instant verification
- Optical-grade PMMA slab for clarity, protection, and display
- Category-specific grading respecting stock, finish, and print traits
Our approach unites data and craftsmanship:
- Measured centering (front/back) and tolerances
- Edges/corners captured under macro and micro optics
- Surface inspection under controlled light grids
- Documentation that makes every call explainable
Grading should be understood — and shown — not hidden.
Where We’re From
We’re proudly Canadian, headquartered in Ontario and serving collectors across the country. By keeping our ecosystem in Canada, we deliver faster turnaround and safer logistics — without currency conversion, international shipping, or border delays.
Made in Canada — for collectors everywhere.
Why We Exist
Because collectors deserve more than a number on a label. They deserve proof, respect, and consistency. We exist to restore trust by making grading clear, fair, and community-first.
- Proof, not promises — visual evidence backs every grade.
- Consistency — standards that are measurable and repeatable.
- Accessibility — fair CAD pricing and predictable shipping.
- Respect — every card treated equally, every time.
We’re building a grading culture where the process is visible, the criteria are understood, and the community comes first.

To bring fairness, transparency, and scientific precision to the hobby — and to grade every card the way it deserves.
