| It means the book looks better than the assigned grade. Usually because the defects are mostly on the interior of the book and not visible in the slab | ||

| Its in the FAQ, Check Mark. Shows as asterisk in your profile. It basically means the comic looks much better than the grade from my understanding. https://www.cbcscomics.com/grades I got it on one of my comics also.   |

 I’m not sure they know they’re taking one for the team.

| I just received my first * for my Action Comics #1 Loot Crate Exclusive Variant. Wish it was the original but this is a good reproduction. 9.4* So is this * considered a good thing? | ||

| It's used when the notable defect is interior and just viewing the outside one would assume a higher grade. Being that it looks better than a 9.4, you might be able to get a higher price than other 9.4s. Not sure how the market perceives these though. | ||

I got this book back from CBCS. I think the checkmark causes confusion more than anything else. How do you explain that to a potential buyer? Umm..it should have graded higher but oh well its an 8.5. I don't think it helps at all. Better just give me the 8.5 without the checkmark and be done with it. I had some people ask me if it was restored because of the checkmark. I think they should explain on the label. Just my 2 cents.  |

| It's not hard to explain, checkmark means there's an interior flaw not visible from the outside of the slab and the book presents visibly better than the grade witch is accurate. | ||
