1966 OPC Batman Black Bat #22 Double-Cross

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approx 55/45 L/R), top border appears wider than bottom (approx 60/40 T/B) — centering is acceptable for NM-EX range. Corners: the visible corners show mild-to-moderate rounding, particularly the lower-left and upper-right corners, consistent with EX-MT to NM range; no razor-sharp corners evident. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious nicks or tears visible, consistent with the vintage rough-cut texture normal for OPC issues. Surface shows good gloss retention with no obvious creases, staining, or print defects visible, though the photo cannot fully confirm the reverse or subtle surface wear; the seller's NRMT claim appears optimistic given the corner softness, placing this more realistically in the EX-MT (6) range with NM (7) possible if corners are better than they appear at this resolution.

Centering: left border is a sliver (~5%) vs. right border noticeably wider (~20%), top border moderate (~15%) vs. bottom border wider (~20%) — left/right ratio is approximately 80/20 or worse, suggesting significant off-centering but not an outright miscut. Corners: the visible upper-left corner appears blunted and rounded; other corners show wear consistent with handling. Surface: there is visible soiling or scuffing in the lower-left quadrant near the title area, and the card shows general gloss loss across the artwork consistent with a VG range card. Edges appear slightly rough but within normal OPC production tolerance. The combination of rounded corners, surface wear, and poor left-right centering lands this solidly in the VG (3) range, with VG-EX (4) possible if the back is clean and corners are slightly better than they appear at this resolution.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (approximately 70/30 L/R), top and bottom borders appear roughly 55/45 T/B — centering is off but not catastrophically miscut. The top-left and bottom-left corners show visible rounding and wear consistent with a VG-EX to EX range card; the right-side corners are harder to assess due to the close-crop composition of the artwork. Surface shows some general toning and loss of gloss consistent with a vintage OPC card of this age, with no obvious creases visible but light handling wear present throughout. The image resolution prevents confident corner closeup assessment, so the range is widened accordingly — a crease hiding in shadow or more severe corner wear on the right side could push this toward a 3.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly narrower than bottom (approximately 55/45 T-B) — acceptable but not tight. Corners show light rounding visible at the upper-left and lower-right, consistent with a 5 EX range; no razor sharpness evident but no severe blunting either. Surface gloss appears moderate with some loss visible, and there is light toning/aging on the white border areas typical of OPC issues of this era — no creases are visible from this angle though the back is unseen. Edges show the rough-cut texture normal for 1966 OPC printing, which should not be penalized; overall the card presents as a solid EX example, though the hidden back and lack of corner close-ups prevent a tighter call.
