Las Vegas / Oakland / Los Angeles Raiders
Era
Modern (2000s - Present)
Item Type
Glassware / Shot Glass
Condition
Good. The glass is clear and the medallion is intact, though there is white residue on the left side of the metal.
Rarity
Common. Mass-produced NFL licensed merchandise.
Overall Assessment
The item is a standard piece of Raiders fan merchandise. It does not appear to be signed. The white marks visible are likely damage or debris rather than an autograph.
Authenticity Assessment
Not an autograph. Confidence level 100% that the visible marks are aesthetic or accidental, not a signature.
Signature Style
None. There are white vertical paint or sticker residue marks on the left side of the medallion, but no legible signature.
Signature Characteristics
Analysis reveals three distinct white vertical strokes. These lack the flow, pressure variation, or letter structure of a human signature.

Likely white paint or plastic residue on a metal and glass medium.
Item Description
A square-based glass shot glass featuring a pewter-style oval medallion with the Las Vegas Raiders logo in the center.
Estimated Value
$5.00 - $15.00 USD
Comparison to Known Examples
Does not match any known signatures of Raiders legends such as Ken Stabler, Howie Long, or Marcus Allen.
Authentication Tips
Do not mistake manufacturing defects or scratches in the metal medallion for a signature. Genuine Raiders autographs on glassware are usually in metallic Sharpie on the glass surface.
Certification Recommendation
None. The item does not contain a signature to certify.
Red Flags
The marks are located on the edge of the logo medallion rather than a clear signing surface; they appear to be scuffs or material transfers.
Provenance Notes
Likely a thrift store or retail find based on background context; no documentation of a signing event is present.
Historical Context
The Raiders are one of the NFL's most iconic franchises with a 'Commitment to Excellence' and a highly dedicated fan base known as 'Raider Nation.'
Market Trends
Utility glassware for NFL teams remains a stable low-end collectible market but does not appreciate like signed memorabilia.
Investment Potential
None. This is a functional fan item rather than a financial investment.
Similar Autographs
Fans of the Raiders often collect signed helmets by Maxx Crosby or Davante Adams.
Display & Preservation
Hand wash only; avoid abrasive cleaners on the medallion to prevent further scuffing.
