Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border ~8mm, right border ~6mm, top border ~6mm, bottom border ~7mm — roughly 57/43 L/R and 54/46 T/B, which is quite solid for this issue. Corners appear to have only light to mild wear with no obvious rounding visible at this resolution, though the bottom-left corner is partially obscured by sleeve glare making a precise read difficult. Surface shows good color saturation and reasonable gloss retention with no visible creases. Edges appear clean with no significant chipping or roughness beyond normal A&BC production texture. The card presents well overall but the sleeve glare masks critical corner detail, widening the range; a EX-MT (6) is the most likely grade pending clean corner inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R); top border narrower than bottom (~45/55 T/B) — centering is acceptable, no miscut evident. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most notably the top-right and bottom-left, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some loss of gloss and light toning/aging typical of A&BC British issues; no obvious hard creases are visible in this photo but surface wear is present. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major tears or paper loss; the back is not visible so hidden creases or staining cannot be ruled out, widening the range accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably narrower than right (~60-65% right-heavy), top border slightly wider than bottom, estimating L/R ~65/35 and T/B ~55/45 — centering is off but not extreme. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible in photo (lower-left and upper-left appear softened), consistent with VG-EX range. Surface shows some toning/aging typical of A&BC British issues and slight gloss loss but no obvious hard creases are visible from this image; the card does appear to have light general wear throughout. Edges look reasonably intact with no tears apparent, though the photo angle and sleeve make precise corner and edge assessment difficult — the range is widened accordingly.

Card is slabbed (CGC holder visible), limiting corner and surface inspection. Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55-60% left bias), top border moderately wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering appears acceptable but not tight, roughly 65/35 range. No obvious creases visible through the slab. The card image appears to show decent gloss and color saturation with no severe print defects visible. Corners cannot be closely assessed through the slab but appear to show minimal to light wear with no obvious rounding evident at this resolution. Back cannot be assessed. A&BC cards frequently show rough cut edges which should not be over-penalized; estimated grade range 5-7 with 6 as most likely, pending actual corner and surface inspection.
