3.0 to 3.5 the marks on the back cover spine are unusual
In what way?

3.5 from me. Not positive, but I'd take a close look at the bottom right corner creases for possible color touch... seems like the white creases 'disappear' in a few black and red spots.
Can't be ..I am original owner and I never did a color touch.

"I am not an expert on restoration, It is the lower staple that stands out, both are off centered but there are not any extra staple holes so one would assume they were placed off center during the bindery process. The upper staple is discolored/rusted and the lower staple is clean."
So if they were put in comic at bindery, how can one staple age faster than other unless top one exposed to more air/moisture. And how is that done without more tanning on top of comic or some sign of water damage there?? I think the lower one was replaced.

Yeah that huge piece out does it in. 1.5 to 2.0 at best.

The shadows on your pics make it hard to grade!
But the use of a marker will bring it down quite a bit I think. First pic shows it is quite large and ruins overall FC art. Your second pic shows it goes through cover. Not going to get that marker out. 3.0 because of that.

Agree on 9.4,might get a 9.6.

This thread is for grading comics..not identifying them!

My first slabbed comic - early 2020 - had Newton Rings. I got it at MyComicShop and complained. They said I needed to contact CGC which I did. CGC offered to Re-holder it for that cost, but with shipping cost and my time too I decided the heck with it. Maybe someday. It really messes up the appearance of the comic - Journey into Mystery 122 a 9.0. Up until now (another 60 or so slabbed) I haven't got any more that had rings - lucky so far. But have about 50 being delivered soon. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Collectors seem to value the original real deal. Hence, the US editions are most desirable.
As with all collectibles its about supply AND demand. Even if there is a rare supply of Pence copies, if the demand is not there, the desirability won't be either.
That being said, Pence variants are becoming more known in the community and I can see them catching up to equal value as the original American printing.
A few years ago, similar thing happened to Canadian Price variants. They were originally not that desirable and would go for less, but now that more knowledge is understood about how rare they are (along with resulting demand), some CPV's are now selling for more than US editions.
I am confused.. Blumedgroup says since thy are rare and there is a resulting demand so now they are worth a lot But GetMarwood&1 says rare UKprice variants "aren't worth sh
for that very reason. Near zero supply. Near zero demand!" If there is a low supply why isnt there demand?

Here is an example.

I'm thinking of early X-Men UK price variants (in the 5 to 30 range, 1964 to 1967) .The only thing different on the cover appears to be the price which is 10d instead of 12c.
Thanks.

Are UK editions of silver age especially mid 1960s, are worth the same as US edition?

in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?

Ah yes I see. Not sure why that is.
Further stress on spine after BC tanned with age?
