apoptosis Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 (edited) Batman #47 just picked up. I know what grade I think it is, and what grade I bought it at but am super curious what others have to say. Staples are attached, slight to no rust.

I think 6.0 maybe too optimistic but I do think it presents nice. mephistopheles 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Roughly 5.5, nicely presenting for the grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scburdet Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Really wanted to say 6.0 b/c it's so nice looking. I think 5.5 is more probable, but I won't be mad if it gets that 6.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJD Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 5.5 or 6.0 for me. It would look better if that torn piece that sticks out was straightened up, and I don't think fine would be unreasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apoptosis Posted December 18, 2022 Author Share Posted December 18, 2022 Thank you everyone who graded. I purchased this as a 3.0 from my LCS. I thought it was 5.0 right when I saw it. As I have looked closer I think it might be 5.5 so right in line with all you. I cleaned it last night and its in the press now then off to CGC. I will update when its back.

LowGradeBronze Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Wish I could buy some 3.0s from your LCS! I think this might come back as a 5.0 including the GA bump that appears the norm with CGC grading for GA books. scburdet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mars76 Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 I just got my Batman #22 back and it got a 5.0. This looks much nicer than my book. I'm gonna say 6.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this might come back as a 5.0 including the GA bump that appears the norm with CGC grading for GA books. I have been going to my LCS for going on 6 years now, and have never once bought raw off the wall until this. They are almost always over graded and over priced. I don't know how they would let a GA key with ~250 on census go like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowGradeBronze Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Well you clearly had your Spidey sense, or rather your Bat radar, switched on that day! (Not in the same league, but my LCS recently had an X-Men 125 on the wall in 7.0 for the price of a 2.0. That came home with me!) scburdet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cor88b Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 5.0-6.0 is the range I would guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
