My favorites I think, probably because they are the nicest pence copies I ever saw.

Agreed -- Your FF #49 and FF #50 might be among the nicest ones I've seen of the pence issues!   I know Tghutcn here has a very nice FF #49 UKPV, too, as well as SS #15 UKPV.  Haven't seen copies of these this nice before.

Off topic slightly, but does anyone else find this criminal? Horrible sig on a NM/M copy. :cry:

Silver Surfer 1 9.8

Yeah, I am a massive sig series fan and have 1000+ books but I wouldnt dream of a sig of a HG book other than modern.

But I guess if its your book, you can do with it as you wish

I think this is about right for my conscience

Can you remember where you got them from Kev?

Nah, I have probably had them since the 1970s or early 80s, I was buying from everywhere at the time, I was just looking to complete sets back then.

Why wait for an actual pending auction to have fun?  I wonder what a 9.8 SS#1 would fetch nowadays, but also a 9.6 and 9.4 as they have only double-digit census (do they generally go for a pre-determined fraction of 9.8 value, and can we expect that--or whatever the appropriate ratio is--to hold if a 9.8 goes ballistic?).  hm  Has any one given that some thought already?  There are only 9 blue SS#1s in 9.8.  With the 9.8 FF#48 and a 9.8 SS#4 (and even the 9.8 MS#5) sales earlier this year, it just feels like a 9.8 SS#1 offering is around the corner.

A couple of very robust 9.6 sales today to keep it interesting.  SS#1 CGC 9.6 OW/W sold today on H for $31.2K, while the SS#4 CGC 9.6 W sold today on H for $28.8K.     

halperin has been busy today bidding against everyone it seems. absolutley ridiculous prices, as expected, on all key books.
