m19ark Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) Book is NM all around. Sharp corners, perfect spine and both front and back cover look great. The issue is the title of the book is gold embossed which is badly scratched. It was stored in one of those hard Mylar sleeves from the 90’s. The embossed part rubbed against the Mylar since it was raised higher than the rest of the cover. What do you guys think? Thanks everyone!!

grendelbo Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 This is a tough one to grade. Structurally, disregarding the foil scratches, I'd call this copy NM. But those scratches are a thing and I'd call them minor cover wear. Let's go 9.0. Thanks for sharing. I wonder what others will say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galen130 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 NOT near mint, IMO. 9.0 at best, but who knows what CGC will think… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
