ComicSpa Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Book was cracked and pressed. Was originally graded as a 9.6. Issues in grader notes was rust on staple. Could not find any rust. Just some kind of substance that probably came with the staple before being used in the book. It’s only on the bottom prong on the bottom staple. Can be seen at the centerfold photo. Nothing wrong with top staple. The other defect was a crease on the back cover. Everything else is fine. Let me know everyone! Thx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newshane Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I don't see any rust, but I'm not looking through a loupe. Based on the pics provided, I completely disagree with the CGC's assessment. I'm also not sure how rust would form on the interior of the staple and not the outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComicSpa Posted March 8 Author Share Posted March 8 My thoughts also. I looked it over with my lens on both sides and I don’t see anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougC Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 could be angle and reflection but is that a spine split on the bottom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
