Hey P, Man I can't tell by looking at it. It does look like it's a high quality restoration. The old graders notes don't get into detail as to the materials used. Sweet book for sure. You think it would grade A-2? Probably, maybe. Only one way to find out. So tempting this one. 

 

this is the feedback I got (can't recall the resto specialist as it was ages ago) when I considered having it re-graded

original grade date: 05/02/2008

A-1 - Slight Pro, A-2 - Slight/Mod Pro, A-3- Mod Pro, A-4 - Mod/Ext Pro, A-5 Ext Pro.  Right?

This beauty is graded Moderate Professional. 

correct, but it was graded as Mod by yesteryear's standards.

Wouldn't it be A-2?  "A" for professional work and "2" for moderate restoration?

the resto is slight/mod not mod

Nice price for an A-3. 

by today's standards if regraded would likely be A-2

I will try and post another picture of the Bats 1 Denver it’s in the vault at the bank when I get a chance it still looks exactly like the one posted above 

Congrats ! You bought it in 2010 from HA, correct ?

You have a ton of offers on the platform. Are you actively looking to sell or is the "Make Offer" thing coming from Heritage ?

pretty sure a boardie owns that yummy Bats 1

The other 8.0 is the Larson. 

The other 8.5 is this:

It sold for a bit over $2M in 2018. Resold in 2021 for $3.25 million. Which 8.5 is better?  I guess we're going to see how big an impact the Pandemic had on perceptions of value.

 

love the serial # on this one

6.3 Mil for the AC1 8.5

Who is that woman?

used to be my babysitter

The only book I was wrong about was the AS8 that I figured would again stay under 1Mil
