ADAMANTIUM Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I'd take a guess at 9.4 or 9.6. There's something going on with the upper corner of spine... from the back cover point of view I do not know much about this book to know if that is a factory defect... But it looks high grade... high grade is hard to be precise even from scans... and don't get me started on what a press would get you because I'm not familiar with that in high-grade either Great book!! slavenski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADAMANTIUM Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 The book also appears to lay flat and No spine ticks that I can see on my phone I'm also not good at looking for finger prints, I've never bought gloves to handle my books To me or imo they handle them at the LCS, anyway I don't want a tangent of my own, I just don't know how serious finger prints are.... slavenski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, Thanks for your thoughts! I'm not the most familiar with specifics either so it's always great to get an opinion. Looking to get it graded.

poppy73 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Corner's look sharp and the book appears to lay flat with no spine ticks that I can see. I'd guess 9.6 without more pics. If I had more pics to base my guess on it might get a higher grade. Anyway, nice book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevlnuts Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Definitely NM from what I can see, but to narrow it down between 9.4-9.8 is kinda hard to say. CGC sometimes surprises me with how they grade modern NM books. I have this book on the way back from CGC right now, Im a bit afraid to look at the grade.

Mine got a grade of 9.6. Your book seems very similar to mine, wouldnt be surprised if you are sitting 9.6/9.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
