PGM captain America 117-GRADE IS IN 1 1

[Adam Lucas]

The cover and first 2 wraps are detached at the bottom staple. There’s no other hidden defects. Centerfolds good. I’m thinking this is a 4. The overstreet guide allows a cover being detached at 1 staple at a grade of 3.5. I’m not sure how the other 2 wraps factor into that. Also the grades are based on an accumulation of defects so I’m thinking that the lack of other defects at that grade will bring it up to a 4.

I sent it in last week mainly so I could see how badly this staple effects the grade. I’m prepared for a 3 but hopeful for a 4. Either way I’ll have an answer in a few months.

In the mean time I was wondering what everyone else’s thoughts were on this. I’ll post the grade once I get it back.

thanks in advance.

It seems CGC didn’t catch the bottom staple issue. It’s not on the label which they usual list it there. Based on the grade it seems you got a gift.

what did the graders. Notes say?
