1966 OPC Batman Black Bat #48 Monstrous Illusion

Centering estimate: left border appears notably narrower than right (~70/30 L/R), top and bottom borders appear more even (~55/45 T/B), suggesting moderate left-right miscentering consistent with EX-5 territory. Corners show some softening and rounding visible at the lower-left and upper-left corners, with the right corners appearing slightly better but still showing wear — consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears moderate with some light wear but no obvious creases or staining visible; print quality is typical for the OPC issue with slightly coarser stock expected for this Canadian printing. The COMC watermark obscures some surface detail, particularly in the center, preventing full assessment of print snow or any surface defects — range widened accordingly.

Centering: left border ~8mm, right border ~5mm, top border ~5mm, bottom border ~7mm — roughly 62/38 L-R and 58/42 T-B, which is acceptable at the NM level, but the slight left-heavy shift is noted. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding consistent with handling wear; no corner is sharp, placing this firmly in the VG-EX to EX range at best. Surface: some gloss loss is visible and there appears to be light surface wear across the card face; no obvious crease is confirmed from this photo though one cannot be ruled out on the back. Edges show the rough vintage cut typical of OPC stock which is not penalized, but the overall wear pattern points to a PSA 4 (VG-EX) as the most likely grade, with EX (5) possible if corners are better than they appear and no crease exists on the reverse.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approx 55/45 L/R), top border appears noticeably wider than bottom (approx 65/35 T/B), which is acceptable for NM-MT range but pushes toward the lower end. Corners appear reasonably sharp with no obvious rounding visible at this resolution, though the bottom corners are harder to assess. Surface gloss appears present with good color saturation and no obvious creases or staining visible. The card shows what appears to be light edge/border wear consistent with a 6 EX-MT grade; without corner macro shots or back inspection, the range is widened — a cleaner copy could reach 7 but hidden corner wear or back issues could push this to 5 EX territory.
