oakman29 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Well it is the best looking Pence copy I've ever seen. I wish, it gets a 3.0 at best, probs more like a 2.5 but at least it should be blue That's high grade for a Pence copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny54321 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 After months of waiting for a 2.0 or 2.5 to come to auction, I finally won what I was looking for! This almost completes my silver age key collection, and has been by far the toughest one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaja-mon12 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 So, who has a prediction on what this fine specimen will sell for on HA?! Right now it's at $15K! I'm thinking $60K with the premium, maybe more! I can't remember seeing a CGC 8.5 sell recently. Especially, not one belonging to a pedigree or collection. Now at $42.5K, $50.8K with the premium and 4+ days left until floor bidding! Dang! Someone from Beantown could've bought me a new Yankees jersey! I still believe it will go for over $60K!

Bomber-Bob Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 (edited) Well it does sport a sizable corner crease on the front cover, but in fairness the crease is light and appears to barely break color. Could have easily ended up in an 8.0 holder. I think it's over by .5. Top right is gonna keep the hammer price down. I agree about the gift grade on the 8.5. No doubt this is a beautiful book but that upper right corner crease stands out, stares you right in the face. Gift grades in a pedigree/collection has been discussed before. One theory is the graders get mesmerized when grading so many nice books and some slip by. Edited November 16, 2013 by bomber-bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThoseBackPages Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 when i got back into comics last year this book was on my radar as an investment piece. i own a 2.0 (i know, the grade is "too low" to be an "investment") and for the life of me, i have to admit that i love the damn thing!
