Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Very Fine- (CGC 7.5)
Condition Details
Visible minor spine stress ticks, slight blunting on the upper left corner, and minor edge wear along the top; the cover retains good gloss but shows some surface scuffing visible under direct light.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $2 - $5; Graded 9.8: $40 - $55
Recent Sales
Recent raw copies sold for approximately $1-$3 on eBay; 9.8 graded copies have sold in the $45 range.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of the grading service exceeds the current market value of the book unless it is a guaranteed 9.8, which this specimen is likely not due to spine wear.
Notable Features
Features an appearance by the Eternal Warrior. Significant for being part of the mid-90s Valiant era before the Acclaim acquisition.
Authentication Notes
Authentic 1990s Valiant production. Correct logo placement for 'MAR NO. 7' and the $2.25 price point. Paper stock appears to be the standard glossy finish used by Valiant at the time.
