One more slot filled in the copper Uncanny X-Men run. I'm just an issue or three away.![]() I was surprised to see this come up for sale and CBCS graded as well. It is also a pedigree-ish copy from the personal collection of Mr. Magik Woo. I almost didn't buy it as the for sale scan made it look as though the top was miscut. It isn't. I was fortunate to be able to work out a deal with the seller. One more for the November 1971 set. ![]() |

@ICConquest Welcome to the "I take my hobby seriously, and all I got was an overgrown kindergartener that is in need of a non-neglectful babysitter telling me who I am" club! ![]() I can only guess that @flanders would agree that this topic is all fun and games until somebody reminds us what the flutes smell like at banned camp. ![]() |

Quote:Originally Posted by DrWatson If CGC is still anything like I was told years ago, their graders are still grading via a 'per quota' system. Meaning that the way they grade, slab, etc. is based on what numbers they have to meet. So while I had bought a few CBCS slip-ups in 2022, I can only guess that they would allow their graders to be accurate even if they have a high volume quota that needs to be met. |

Here's a 1780 Austrian Silver Thaler, one of the precursors to, and inspirations for the earliest American Silver Dollars. Don't get too excited though, this one is just a post-1850 re-strike.![]() ![]() |

Got these back yesterday for the Holiday promo. This was a banana 9.8. Glad it kept the grade (I did have this one pressed). ![]() Very excited about this one. I figured a 6.0 at best (this one was pressed, too). ![]() This is the last one I had pressed. The rest were straight submissions that were just fun books to have signed and graded for the PC. ![]() I will say that this one surprised me a little on the grade. I didn't see the scratches they noted, but when I got it back, you can see some small ones when you shift the book in the right light. The foil was deceptive on that one. Ah well. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Here's the rest from the Holiday promo. Honestly, I think John Romita Jr.'s art is hit and miss, but he is one of the nicest guys I've ever met at a con. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I disassembled a couple reprints of AF 15, so I could custom frame the first Spider-Man story. This will be mounted at the entry to my Man Cave! I think it turned out pretty awesome. ![]() |

@GAC They are. I used the ToyBiz toy reprint because I didn’t want a barcode or “not for resale” in the corner. | ||

@DWeeB1967 Thanks! If the story were much longer, it just wouldn’t have been realistic to frame it all. I almost did “part 2” in a separate frame, but since it was an even 12 pages with the cover, I figured this layout made sense. |
