1966 OPC Batman Black Bat #18 Robin in Action — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approximately 70/30 left-right skew favoring right side), top and bottom borders look more balanced at roughly 55/45 — centering is noticeably off horizontally. Corners: the visible corners show some rounding, particularly the bottom-left and top-left, consistent with light-to-moderate handling wear; no corners appear sharp. Surface: gloss appears intact with reasonable sheen for the era, no obvious creases detected from this single front photo, print quality looks typical for OPC with no severe snow or staining noted. Edges appear intact without major chipping; the rough-cut texture normal for OPC/1966 Topps is present and not penalized. Back is not visible, limiting confidence — a crease or stain on the reverse could push this toward a 3-4.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 70/30 L/R favoring right), top and bottom borders appear closer to 60/40 — centering is off but not severely miscut, no adjacent card printing visible. Corners: at this resolution the corners appear slightly rounded, particularly the top-left and bottom-left, suggesting light-to-moderate wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface shows reasonable gloss retention with no obvious creases visible from this angle; the image art reads cleanly without staining or print defects beyond normal vintage print snow. Edges appear intact without major chips or tears, though the slightly rough cut is normal for OPC stock and is not penalized. Back is not visible so creases or paper damage cannot be ruled out, widening the range accordingly.

Centering: left border roughly 10-12%, right border 5-7%, top border ~8%, bottom border ~10% — card pulls noticeably left/right, estimating approximately 65/35 L-R which alone would cap at 7-8, but surface and corner wear dominate here. All four corners show visible rounding and wear, consistent with heavy handling; upper-left and lower-left corners appear the most blunted. A diagonal crease or stress line is visible in the lower-left quadrant of the card face, which is grade-limiting on its own (PSA 3 territory). Surface gloss is largely gone, replaced by a dull, worn finish consistent with a VG or lower grade. The white border shows toning and edge wear; while rough cuts are normal for OPC issues, the overall package of rounded corners, visible crease, and significant gloss loss lands this firmly in the PSA 2–4 range, with PSA 3 as the most likely outcome.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is passable but secondary to surface issues. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most notably the upper-left and lower-right, consistent with handling wear. Surface shows multiple creases — a prominent diagonal crease runs across the lower-center of the card, and additional stress lines are visible in the upper portion; gloss appears heavily diminished across the face. Edges show roughness consistent with vintage OPC cuts but also some fraying. Overall condition profile places this squarely in the VG (3) range, possibly sliding to GOOD (2) depending on crease depth; a VG-EX (4) ceiling is possible only if the creases are shallower than they appear in this photo.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably thinner than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — not ideal but within EX-MT range. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (upper left and lower left appear softer), consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and the image appears slightly worn/faded, typical of the era. No obvious creases or staining visible from this photo, but the scan angle and resolution limit confident corner and edge assessment; back is not visible so no crease confirmation from reverse.
