CGC Grading Question

5 posts in this topic

Hey guys,

 

Quick question. If you have a Golden Age book that is graded 5.5 but has centerfold detached wouldn't that make it a qualified grade? It still has the blue label and is listed as a universal grade with the note "Centerfold Detached" below the title. In the Overstreet guide it seems to show that this shouldn't be graded above a 2.5? I know CGC has their own standards but would collectors consider this a qualified grade? Thanks a lot!

Brad, in this case, a blue 5.5 with Centerfold Detached notation, the book was graded with the flaw. Given the choice of a green qualified label, the book would have graded higher. Most collectors prefer the lower grade, blue label option.
