9.8SS

In the world of comic grading and collecting, 9.8 is the grade for a Near Mint / Mint condition comic book. The precise definition is "a nearly perfect collectible with negligible handling or manufacturing defects." The SS in 9.8SS is the abbreviation for Signature Series, referring to holy golden label featured on the comic book slab/plastic housing. Unlike it's cousin the 9.8B , this label is applied to collectibles that have been signed by someone of significance to the collectible. The item is signed under the direct observation of a CGC authorized witness, and are thus certified by CGC as having an authentic signature.
