How high can a golden age comic grade with small piece missing back

[Stoneheart]

I have a really neat looking don winslow of the navy 1947 comic #52 in 8.0 or better condition, but it has a small piece missing on the back bottom....As seen in pics, whats the highest this could grade with that chip or piece missing

 

Thanks alot !!! Eric

I have actually had a SA comic with almost that much of a piece missing in the same spot get a CGC 9.0. The rest of the book looked perfect, so without the piece missing it probably was a 9.6 or 9.8.

I don't think it will take that much off at all, especially on a GA book. I wouldn't worry too much.

Who knows, according to the OS grading guide if a piece is missing completely it should only be 4.0-4.5, but with it being GA-who knows

I agree--especially if CGC feels that it's a bindary chip.

I have a FF 23 missing about this size on the back cover also (remember it's probably blown up because of the huge scan) and it's an 8.0.

Yes, if it's a 1/4"triangle or 1/8" square chunk missing then 4.0-4.5 would be tops(OS wise). Then again, we don't know how CGC regards this since we don't have access to their grading parameters, but since I'm an OS zombie I stick by their standards.
