roccojoco Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Since when was there a Cerebus #1 graded a CGC 9.6? It's a Signature Series too and does not appear to be a regraded version as there are still 3 at 9.4. I'm surprised to see this coming out of left field and would love to see it.

seanfingh Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 You will get more traction on this in the Bronze Age room. It is a good topic, and there are a couple of Cerebus threads already if you want to bump them with this info. F For Fake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appeared on the CGC Census between October 8th and December 3rd, 2019. It's likely that a CGC 8.0 was also signed/graded at the same time. There were two months that the CGC Census data update was broken, so I can't narrow it down anymore than that without the serial number. If we had that, we'd be able to see the grading day. http://www.cgcdata.com/cgc/search/comicid/39931 (Scroll down for signature series, following the universals.)

I'm not sure you can rule out this as a re-graded 9.4. It's possible someone took a 9.4 and had it pressed and submitted without submitting the original label. ...or it could be a never-before-graded copy. Stranger things have happened.

Yes, so long as the chain of custody is maintained. The book must be removed from the slab in the presence of an authorized witness. If this is done and the witness follows the correct procedure, then you can certainly crack a Signature Series book and have it graded again under the Signature Series label. This is a very common occurrence. Plenty of people send already-signed/slabbed books to witnesses and facilitators to have the books cracked, signed again, and regraded. But if you plan on doing this, just be mindful that rules must be followed to maintain the Signature Series label. Read up on the rules BEFORE cracking the book.

I thought so, then this disproves that a previously slabbed 9.4 Cerebus Signature Series was resubmitted as the case would be intact and the label would have to be present, which would then be removed from the census. A 9.6 coming out of the wild after 43 years and not a Sim file copy is just unimaginable at this point, but it may have happened.
