You've been misinformed. Certificates have no intrinsic class.
Verisign, a commercial certificate agency, provide three different
"classes" of certificate. These act in the way you describe. Each
is signed by a different root CA.
You determine the Verisign class by determining which Verisign CA
certificate signed the certificate you are looking at.
