Web,

 

There are a few things going on: first, the scan is too grainy to make any true judgments; second, that being said, you've got a smudge and some color loss in the ULFC; three, there appear to be creases to the UR and LR corners of the FC; four, you appear to have some edge wear along the REFC; five, there is a color defect at the top edge, and the tope edge is severely over cut (there should be another band of color, I believe.) frown.gif

It's a Modern, and I would just keep it in Mylar and enjoy it: 8.0 sumo.gif

Thanks I thought I would post one more at 100dpi this time.. I think It looks more like a 9-0-9.4

It is interesting to note that this appears to be some kind of variant ( possibly LCS) since the triangle with the number and the 75 cent seems very small. Checking Gerbers book, it shows this one.. however I think that the missing band at the top is due to manufacturing, this book ahs more on the bottom then the one in Gerbers book. Very interesting.

 

 

 

Here is what I upgraded from bought right off the news stands

Web,

 

Much nicer, and easier to read. wink.gif I suggest pumping it up to 200 dpi and making that your standard. Nicer than I thought - no apparrent corner creases, but tmy other comments were valid. If the BC is as nice - I'll take it up to a 9.0 sumo.gif

 

Would I have it graded? No. Not unless the price sky rockets at some point in the future. Definitely a nice upgrade from the other copy. thumbsup2.gif
