ComicLink Comments:
The 35 cent Price Variant for Iron Fist 14 is very rare in high grade. This NM CGC 9.2 is the second highest graded, and only 4 have ever been awarded this grade, with a mere 2 at 9.4 ever certifying slightly higher. Demand is very strong for this first Sabre-Tooth appearance, and in combination with both Price Variant and high grade, this item makes for a very unusual opportunity.High grade 35 Cent Price Variants are extremely elusive on the market. In fact, many collectors have no choice but to settle for a lower grade example to complete their collection. It is not often that top graded examples present themselves at auction. With their rarity in grade these 35 Cent variants are sure to reach a new level of popularity and demand. |
