I sure hope it crashes. I haven't bought any over about $1400 spot. I would like to Scrooge Mcduck some more. I hope it all comes tumbling down so...
I agree they are kind of weird to grade. I have never been great at them either, even though I consider them to be our greatest circulating US...
All auctioneers will brag about how well they do. I do see auctions results as high now, since way too many people have too much time on their...
I know everyone is dying to ask, which services authenticated them?
Both are also common with libraries. If yours doesn't have it, ask for it with interlibrary loan. That way you can get it, use it, see how you...

I would be at 65, no FS, and +. I say 65 versus 66 due to too many hits in PFA, the cheek, but + due to overall luster and appearance.
