GradesNEAR MINT+ / MINT GRADES 300% to 10,000% of NM 9.4 guide priceGEM MINT 10.0MINT 9.9NEAR MINT / MINT : 9.8 NEAR MINT+ : 9.6 There is absolutely no difference in grades above 9.4, it is up to the sole discretion of the final grader at the encapsulation (grading) companies such as: HALO The VAULT PGXCBCSEGS60-day comic gradingMCG CBGC RGACGC NEAR MINT / NEAR MINT- GRADES THIS IS THE AVERAGE GRADE OF A COMIC 1980-2024 100% to 299% of NM 9.4 guide priceNEAR MINT : 9.4 NEAR MINT- : 9.2This book is an excellent copy with great eye appeal.This is close to mint with some minor defect.A slight stress line by the staples.The staples themselves are generally centered clean with no rust.Maybe some of the color has chipped or flaked off the cover.And again, the cover is flat with no surface wear; inks are bright with high reflectivity and very little fading. And those tricky corners are cut square and sharp with ever so slight blunting permitted.You can tell that this comic has been stored properly and looks as new as the day it was printed.All stress marks should be almost invisible and bindery tears must be less than 1/16 inch.Only the most subtle binding and/or printing defects allowed.Cover is fairly well centered and firmly secured to interior pages.Paper is supple and like new.Spine is tight and flat.Unobtrusive date stamps or arrival dates in pencil or ink are acceptable.Many pedigree collection comics have a notation on the cover or the interior of the comic and are considered a bonus to collectors as they help prove the provenance of the comic.VERY FINE / NEAR MINT GRADES 75% to 100% of NM guide priceVERY FINE / NEAR MINT : 9.0Slightly better condition than VERY FINE +:8.5, but in lesser conditions than the grade above.VERY FINE+ : 8.5 VERY FINE : 8.0 VERY FINE- : 7.5A VERY FINE comic book appears to have been read a few times and has been handled with some care.This one allows for some more defects.Some of the above defects along with a small fold or crease in the cover.Very few stress marks on spine.A few small chips on the coverThe cover has some slight surface wear but still has its original gloss and there is nothing major wrong with it. Overall an exceptional, still very collectible.FINE GRADES THIS IS THE AVERAGE GRADE OF A BRONZE AGE COMIC 1969-1979 50% to 74% of NM guide priceFINE / VERY FINE : 7.0Slightly better condition than FINE +: 6.5, but in lesser condition than the grade above.FINE+ : 6.5 FINE : 6.0 FINE- : 5.5 This comic is definitely a well-read copy, but can still be a very desirable copy.This could have one major defect like a larger piece out of the cover (1/4 inch to 1/8 inch) or a one-inch plus tear.It has stress lines around the staples and creases from the opening and closing of the cover.The whiteness of the pages has been changed to off-white to yellowish color.This could have a reading or subscription crease or a rolled spine, but is not damaged enough to reduce eye appeal dramatically.Some discoloration, fading in colors and even minor soiling is allowed.The cover and/or inside pages could have minor tears and/or foldsCover can be loose from one staple, but cover cannot be completely detached from interior.Pages and inside covers could be brown but not brittle.Depending on the grade of the copy certain amounts are available in this grade. i.e a book that looks 8.0 with a piece of tape on the interior cover is acceptable in this grade.VERY GOOD GRADES THIS IS THE GRADE OF AN AVERAGE SILVER AGE COMIC 1956-1968 35% to 49% of NM guide priceVERY GOOD/FINE : 5.0 VERY GOOD+ : 4.5 VERY GOOD : 4.0 VERY GOOD- : 3.5 This comic is definitely a well-read copy, but can still be a very desirable copy.Book is complete, but with major creases and or a spine roll.There is almost low cover gloss or at most times none at all.The inside paper quality is not good and yellow and small pieces of them may be missing.If there is a piece missing from the cover, it should be no larger than a 1/2" to 1/4".Books in this grade are almost always creased, scuffed, abraded and soiled, but completely readable. Tape on the comic is considered a defect in this grade.GOOD GRADES THIS IS THE AVERAGE GRADE OF A GOLDEN AGE COMIC 1933-1956 OR PULPS 1926-1940 25% to 34% of NM guide priceGOOD/VERY GOOD : 3.0 GOOD+ : 2.5 GOOD : 2.0 GOOD- : 1.8 Good is really a misnomer, but represents a comic that is still readable with numerous defects.All the defects of a VG comic plus more.There is almost low cover gloss or most times none at all.The inside paper quality is not good and yellow and small pieces of them may be missing.If there is a piece missing from the cover, it should be no larger than a 1/2" to 1/4".Books in this grade are almost always creased, scuffed, abraded and soiled, but completely readable.Book is complete, but with no missing pages and is still in a "collectible" grade.FAIR GRADES 10 % to 24% of NM guide priceFAIR/GOOD : 1.5 FAIR : 1.0This book has seen much better days and tends to be heavily worn and tattered.A copy of a comic in this grade has all pages and most of the covers.A book in this condition is worn, ragged and unattractive.Heavy creases and folds are prevalentpaper quality can be very lowThe spine and/or cover may be completely split.Staples may be missing.Corners are rounded.Coupons cut from cover and or inside pages. Panels can be clipped out.Parts of the front cover may be missing.Soiling, staining, tears, markings or chunks missing will interfere with reading.Brittleness maybe a factor.Moderate to extensive amounts of tape is acceptable on the comic in this grade.This is a low grade item. The story will be complete and readable, but the item itself will have low eye appeal and will display major damage. Allowed defects for this grade include: non-story elements such as coupons, ad pages, or Marvel Value Stamps cut or torn out of the book; spine split of up to 2/3 the length of the book; a missing back cover provided the front cover is still attached; severe water damage, residue, mold, or paper deterioration due to oxidation; vertical book-length crease; detached cover or centerfold; writing or other marks on the cover; major tears; discoloration, staining, or brittleness.POOR GRADE 1% to 9% of NM guide pricePOOR : .5It has major defects to the point that there is almost no collector value.Copies in this grade typically will have pages and/or around 1/3 or more of the front cover missing.They may have severe strains, mildew or heavy cover abrasion to the point where cover inks are gone.Heavy defacing with paints, varnishes, glues, oil, indelible markers or dyes, etc.The inside pages can be extreme brittleness.NO GRADE 1% to 9% of NM guide price(Cover-less/Covers/Pages or Single Wrap)This designation is only used for the purpose of authentication. Numerous collectors and comic fans will purchase cover-less comics to either read or to obtain a filler copy of a book for their collection. Cover-less books will typically sell for a percentage of the good condition value. Rare and key comic books that are cover-less in many cases may sell for a percentage of guide value depending on the specific comic title and issue number. Typically lower then the GD value, but can fluctuate based on buyer interest.Book can been cover-less or be an incomplete partial comic (i.e. wraps).Copies in this designation typically will in most cases be beyond collectible to the majority of the hobby.Rare key comics and incomplete pages i.e. centerfolds are considered to be valuable for either restoration purposes or for individuals who just wish to own a piece of comic history.
