Some staining when angled in the light but does not show in scan except for the orange in Sasquatch's leg.

Hmm.. I see blunting on each corner, some small spine ticks, small stain on right bottom corner and soiling on back..but otherwise great copy 7.5 maybe 8.0

Is that a long horizontal crease going over Vindicator? 6.5 to 7

It looks like a scratch. This book has possible water damage on the cover too. When I angle it in the light. I've never been able to figure out what happen to this book. I got it used back in the 1980s.

how big is water damage? As that could take it down even further

[Golden Pete]

depending on the water damage your prob looking at sub 5.0 with C&P.

There are at least 6 areas at least .5 inches with the biggest being 4 inches across at the widest angle. I can't feel them. Just see them when I angle it to the light.

I have a couple high grade 121's as this is one of my favorite covers from the 79/80 x-men run. As a guideline if an accumulation of about 1/2 the cover has moisture/water damage the max is usually around a 4.0. So if you have less then your higher and more your lower than 4.0..hope that helps

Even a 5.0 or less is still worth sending in my opinion as this is a key and hot right now and probably going to get hotter with all the spec

If you send it in.. Let us know how you did with an update here. 

[JohnDes890]

Yep. I'm sending it in next year. No matter what grade it gets I'm holding on to this one.

That's what I would do! Great key booking any grade & sure to go up in the coming years!
