A 10 going to market would certainly be an interesting study in how much someone is willing to pay for the prestige of a 10 flip, because there is zero chance any 10 out there has better eye appeal and beauty than Evan's.

10s seem to command a huge premium across the board, and I doubt in many cases you could tell the difference from a 9. Indeed, many 10s are 9s that bumped. No reason to think it would be any different in the case of the Mantle, with the one caveat being that there are so few 9s that the gap might not be as substantial as is the norm.

How about we just pick the best looking Mantle. And no fair picking the PSA 9, it's just there for comparison.

Hard for me to tell because some of the scans are really overbright (the 9 is radioactive) so it's not a direct comparison. Not directed at Pete but I don't know why when it's so obvious that different scan settings yield different results, that people are always ready, willing and able to make comparisons from scans alone.

I liked the 86 the best. I'm not a fan of the no line at the bottom of the logo variety.
