FSQIV Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 1.8 seems a bit harsh for how the book presents. 3.0 would be great but who knows what a regrade could bring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mars76 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Hard to tell through the case, but it looks nicer than a 1.8 to me. 2.0-2.5 Snowdon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowGradeBronze Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 (edited) The clue is in the slab it's in right now! The tape, the creasing, the ragged edge. I'd say it could drop if regraded. It's not the worst looking 1.8 but is every inch a 1.8 certainly no better. (Are you thinking that since this was graded some time ago, when grading standards differed from those perceived to be in force today, it may receive more favourable treatment if graded now?)

grendelbo Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Maybe 2.0 nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 I'd be petrified that it would be damaged by additional handling or there could be something inside not noted. I have a range of grader notes from 1st gen slabs. Some ridiculously detailed, others devoid of notes like the higher graded books these days.

Axelrod Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Idle question whether you cracked it out yourself and sent it in raw (possibly through a 3rd party presser) or just sent it in for "reholder", possibly with CGC in house press service? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
