Sorry, I very much disagree with you in regards to your 'opinion' of what value is. My collection of AP's is most valued with NO signatures on them. I value the cards much higher that have no damage of any kind on them, and I consider a signature to be damaging to a card.MAGICSALEMAN wrote:

So of course there's some that aren't signed but to have his real value this one must be signed... (better in fact).
And the value of course is higher that the normal cards.
50 cards in the world don't have the same value of one card that exist in 10 000 pieces or more...
And yeps you can immagine the value of a Black lotus artist proof signed.
For your knowledge Alpha and beta artist proof cards have square corners :-/
Some editions has a printed quantities of 100 artits proofs pieces and other editions has 50 pieces of them.
Good day everyone ;-)
Also, some APs are easy to get signed, some are very hard, and some are almost impossible (not including artists who have passed away). However, for a card that is signed, it is impossible to get it unsigned.
And some of the AP lots are almost all signed by the artist(s), so an unsigned AP is much more rare (in many cases) than a signed AP.
Lastly, none of my APs are fakes, and I have only been tricked by a fake once (hello 5-goblin Minagishi) - however it is far easier to fake a signature than to create an excellent fake card. So with fake signatures, that makes a damged signed AP even more damaged in mine eyes.
