This is kind of a tough one to grade. The cover and multiple wrap detachment will determine the grade. The dents you described and other wear will be allowable in the determined grade range.

If the cover is detached at one staple you're looking at around VF or VF+. You're looking at the same grade for multiple wraps being detached. A completely detached cover will get you a VG grade. I'll say it's somewhere in between - 5.0.

It'll be interesting to hear what others say. Thanks for posting.

Funny, I just sold a copy with the same staple popped although it was just the cover and my copy had no corner creases. I called it 4.5-5.0 to be safe. I believe I have seen 6.0-6.5 blue labels with popped staples but that was on books that were otherwise immaculate. Your has the corner creases so if I were listing, I would call it VG to maybe VG/FN.
