Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border ~35%, right border ~65% left-to-right — significantly off-center; top border ~40%, bottom ~60% top-to-bottom — moderate vertical shift, overall centering approximates 65/35 L-R which alone could push toward a grade cap. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding, particularly the lower-left which exhibits what appears to be paper wear or a soft crease shadow; upper-left also shows slight fraying. Surface: gloss appears substantially reduced with visible toning and soiling on the lower-left quadrant; there is what appears to be a surface scuff or light crease running through the lower portion of the card. Edges: rough cut consistent with OPC stock (not penalized per vintage norms), but the lower-left edge shows darkening/staining consistent with handling wear — taken together, corner rounding, gloss loss, apparent surface crease and centering place this squarely in the VG to VG-EX range, most likely PSA 3.

Centering estimate: left border ~8px, right border ~5px, top border ~6px, bottom border ~8px — left/right roughly 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 45/55 favoring bottom; centering is not the primary concern here. The seller self-discloses a crease, which is supported by visible surface disturbance in the lower-left quadrant of the card face. Corners show clear rounding on at least two visible corners (upper-right and lower-left), consistent with a VG (3) grade. There is noticeable gloss loss and light surface wear across the image area. The crease, corner rounding, and gloss loss together cap this firmly in the VG to VG-EX corridor (3–4), with the crease likely pulling it to a solid PSA 3; the possibility of additional back-side creases or staining not visible here justifies est_min of 2.
