The Amazing Spider-Man #1 in context
Why collectors care
The Amazing Spider-Man #1 (1963) launched Spider-Man's own title after his Amazing Fantasy #15 debut, featuring the first Chameleon and an early Fantastic Four crossover. It is a foundational Silver Age Marvel key second only to his origin issue.
How to identify it
A 1963 first printing at 12 cents, not the Golden Record reprint (which came with a record and has a different cover) or the facsimile. Confirm the indicia.
Common mistakes
The Golden Record reprint is frequently sold as the original; check the indicia and cover price. Restoration and married covers are common on high-grade copies.
Grade considerations
High-grade copies are scarce and page quality varies. Marvel chipping and spine stress are the usual grade-limiters.

Recorded sales by grade · how this summary is built+
Newest recorded sale: 2026-09-23. This summary describes stored history.
Inclusion
All 6 recorded eBay sold (completed) listings in this historical sample, grouped by grader and grade. Asking prices and active listings are never counted.
Outlier handling
Within any grade that has four or more sales, a price below one-third of, or above three times, the within-grade median is set aside before the median is taken. No sales were set aside on this rule for this item.
A comic sale that sold for under a third of the median of this issue's lower-grade sales is also set aside as a probable reprint, facsimile, later printing or restored copy, since a higher grade of the same book should not sell for less. For this item, 2 sales were set aside on this rule.
This issue also has a documented sale of a real copy: a CGC 2.5 copy sold for $2,500 at ComicConnect on Jun 2, 2020 (source). A sale at that grade or higher for under 10% of that price is set aside as a probable reprint or facsimile. For this item, 1 of 6 sale was set aside on this rule.
Probable reprints stay in the sales table below, marked.
