Why this grade

Still sealed in its shrink, with the black EMI picture-disc obi strip under the wrap, so neither the disc face nor the run-out has been seen. The rear-sleeve barcode box reads 50999 972956 1 7 / 5 099997 295617 / UK: 9729 561 at native resolution, which is exactly what the owner typed, and only one release in the master's version list carries that number: the 2013 Europe limited-edition picture disc, 4314130. The (c) 2013 IRON MAIDEN HOLDINGS LTD credit and the These discs are manufactured from vinyl which includes pictures disclaimer agree with a 2013 picture disc. The version list is never complete, so an uncatalogued repress under the same number can't be ruled out until the wrap comes off and the disc is read.

What the record says

Every line below was read off a native-resolution crop of the photograph named beside it.

No run-out groove photograph exists in this folder.

Every line of small print, and the photograph it came from — 6 of them

The object, and what marks it out

Sleeve, labels and inserts

  • Single-pocket sleeve in factory shrink, still sealed, with a black "Limited Edition Picture Disc" obi strip down the left of the front under the wrap.
  • Picture disc not seen: the sleeve has no die-cut window and the wrap is intact.

What distinguishes this pressing

  • Catalogue number 509999 972956 1 7 on the rear barcode box is carried by only one version-list row, 4314130; the other 2013 picture discs are TOJP-60229 (Japan / UK, Europe & Japan) and B0017868-01 (US).
  • (C) 2013 credit line and the picture-vinyl sound-quality disclaimer separate it from the 1988 EMDP 1006 and 060 7902580 picture discs.

Condition, from the photographs

A photograph cannot grade a record - this is a description of what is visible, not a grade.

  • Sleeve: general handling wear with some edge and corner softening; no splits or seam separation visible in these shots.
  • Vinyl: light surface marks and handling sheen catch the light. No visible deep scratches, warping or edge damage in these photographs. The labels are clean and unmarked.

Nothing on this page comes from playing the record. No Goldmine grade is claimed for it, or any other. I have no record of where this copy came from.

What is settled, and what is not

Sealed: the sleeve pins it to 4314130 by catalogue number; the disc itself and its run-out stay unread until the shrink is opened. The owner's note repeats the barcode-box numbers and decided nothing the photographs did not already show.
