Could this NM98 possibly bump to a 9.9 with a press?

Out of curiosity, do books that grade at 9.9 or 10 get encapsulated the same as any other grade? If the tiniest dent ruins >90% of the books value I would think the holder would need to be perfectly fitted.

Yep, the graders often put a note on a 9.9 or 10.0 to make sure the slab room takes extra care when they encapsulate the book. If memory serves, they also like to look it over even after it's slabbed to make sure it meets their standards...

Thank you! This makes sense. Now I know how to avoid quality issues...only submit 9.9+.

Newton rings, hairs, random pieces of plastic...a thing of the past.
