Key Bronze 9.8 Value? - Collectors Society Message Boards | Thread profile

What do you think or feel a DC Tomahawk #116 in CGC 9.8 grade would go for at auction??

 Originally Posted By: Silver All it takes is two bidders with deep pockets...then watch out. GL 76 in 9.8 would fetch big time money. It's unreal what some collectors will spend for highest graded books. There is no price guide for highest graded-alone in the census-hot-key books. I resemble that remark. I just usually come up a pocket short.

The GL 76' 9.4's have been selling for 7,8,9K lately, so a 9.6 might be worth 15-18K? A 9.8 would shake the market at least at 26, 27K?, if not closer to 30K?

I think a 57 in 9.8 would far outstrip a 93. [/quote] I agree, by a country mile.

Like most comic store dealers, they spend there time managing employee's and managing new inventory to purchase. Thats the day to day decision making.

He told me he has a killer high grade copy vaulted away in his personal collection. He does submit alot of books for grading as he gets collections in from his store. He is going to go check his personal collection and the census...

If a GL 76 9.8 copy was on the market for 20K Ill write a check tomorrow for that amount. I think you are underestimating the appeal that Adams books has which goes beyond just DC Bronze collectors, GL 76 is basically the DC version of Hulk 181. Whatever difference in demand is more then made up by the rarity of the book in high grade. Obviously the more 9.6/9.8 copies that appear will effect the final number but if we re talking about 1 9.6...
