CDaBruce Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 (edited) Greetings Forumites: You usually will find me over in Copper/Modern but figured this book should be listed here. This is an Action Comics #1 (2018) CGC 9.9 Silver Foil. It is a New Zealand Mint replica image of the 1938 Action Comics #1 cover. 35g .999 Fine Silver. New Zealand Mint have done a few comic covers but I believe this is the first one they did. CGC grades these like comics and they look really cool in a slab. Makes a great display! I am listing it for $260 $250 shipped. This is about $100 less than the lowest price on the Bay. The reason I'm selling it at that price is that there is some scratching/scuffing(?) on the inside of the front slab. It doesn't affect the book and you can't see it except when you hold it a certain way, but it is there. I received the book yesterday from CGC and rather than sending it back to CGC, which I may still do if it doesn't sell, I thought I would let it go at a discount. PayPal works for me and a return is not a problem up to 14 days after you receive the slab. I'm easy to work with. Here is my feedback: Edited November 19, 2022 by CDaBruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDaBruce Posted November 17, 2022 Author Share Posted November 17, 2022 Here are the scuffs(?). Again, they are on the inside of the slab and doesn’t affect the book at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought maybe all of the Silver Foils were given a conserved grade but I just checked Ebay and none of them have it. So, I have no idea. It was taken out of its original box and submitted directly to CGC at Wonder-Con. A label mistake, maybe. Ugh. For what its worth, I like the look of the conserved grade slab; it matches the silver.

Sounds like another CGC QC Inspector issue. SkOw and CDaBruce 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
