- a blunted/deformed corner
- very slight cover abrasion
- a 1-2 mm off-center cover wrap

... they'd be a 9.6 or 9.4
A 10.0 is NONE of these defects.

And since 9.4 is the default for adding a comic on this site, and is the cover price value - I just use that.

For more of what makes a comic which grade, go to the menu at the top of this page for: Price Guide -> Grading Guide.
