Notice Verification
Verify the authenticity and provenance of any notice or registry entry published in the International Sacred Gazette. Enter a notice ID, slug, or registry identifier to retrieve the full authentication record.
How to verify:
- Find the notice identifier in the URL of any notice page (e.g.,
lexicon-holous-vol-i-issue-1) - Enter it in the field above and click Verify
- You get the notice’s SHA-256 fingerprint (recompute it yourself from the published text), its weekly issue, and the real status of the RFC 3161 timestamp, OpenTimestamps anchor and Wayback capture for that issue
- Independent check: download the issue’s timestamp token and run
openssl ts -verify -digest <issue digest> -in issue.tsr -CAfile cacert.pemwith the freetsa.org CA certificate (cacert.pem)

Live
2. SHA-256 fingerprint of every notice
Shown on each notice and here; anyone can recompute it
Live
3. RFC 3161 timestamp of each weekly issue (freetsa.org)
