Grading Scale

MINT 9.9 to 10

(Rarely if ever give a comic this grade)

The best possible existing condition of that comic book.

It is very rare, especially in older vintage comic books, to discover a comic in these grades as they are virtually non-existent.

NM+ to NM/M MINT 9.8

·      This is close to mint with few minor defects

·      Interior pages are almost always off-white/white or better

NM+ 9.6

This is close to mint with some minor defects. Even though some defects are allowed in 9.6, certain defects, such as tape, are never allowed in this grade range.

NM- to NM 9.2 to 9.4

This book is an excellent copy with great eye appeal.

·      The spine may have a couple of very small stress lines that break color.

·      Minor creasing.

·      The spine is almost completely flat.

·      The cover is relatively flat with almost minimal surface wear and the cover inks are generally bright with high reflectivity.

·      The inside pages and covers usually will be off-white/white, but can be cream/off-white with the absence of other defects.

VF to VF/NM 7.5 to 9.0

9.0 - VF/NM

8.5 - VF+

8.0 - VF

7.5 – VF-

A VERY FINE comic book appears to have been read a few times and has been handled with care. These grades allow for some more defects than higher grades. Overall an above average copy and still very collectible.

·      Some of the above defects along with a fold or crease in the cover that breaks color.

·      Some stress marks on spine.

·      The cover has some slight surface wear but still has much of its original gloss.

·      Sun shadows, dust shadows and tanning can be darker and have more of a visual impact than those in higher grades.

·      A few small chips on the cover.

FINE 5.5 to 7.0

7.0 F/VF

6.5 FINE+

6.0 FINE

5.5 FINE–

This comic is still not as great as a higher grade but can still be a very desirable copy and have great eye appeal.

·      Some cover discoloration, fading in colors and soiling is allowed.

·      Books with slightly brittle pages cannot grade higher than 6.5 and generally are even lower in grade.

·      Pages and inside covers could be brownish but not brittle.

VG to VG/Fine 3.5 to 5.0

5.0 VG/Fine

4.5 VG+

4.0 VG

3.5 VG–

These books are complete, but can have major creases, folds and defects.

·      The inside paper quality can be low.

·      Books with brittle pages cannot grade higher than 3.5 and generally are even lower in grade.

·      Books in this grade are almost always creased or scuffed but readable.

·      Cover gloss can be very low or sometimes no gloss at all.

GOOD to G/VG 1.8 to 3.0

3.0 G/VG

2.5 GOOD+

FAIR 1.0 to 1.5

1.5 FAIR / GOOD

1.0 FAIR

Evan rarer to see these ever sold in our store but these books have seen much better days and tend to be heavily worn.

·      Heavy creases and folds are prevalent.

·      Paper quality can be very low.
