Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (~60-65% right-heavy), top border slightly thinner than bottom, rough L/R ratio approximately 60/40 to 65/35 and T/B approximately 55/45 — borderline for EX-MT but likely grades as EX or lower given other factors. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible in the scan (bottom-left and top-left appear softer), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and appears to have light handling wear; no obvious hard creases are visible from this photo but the image resolution and watermark obscure fine detail. Edges appear intact with no tears; rough cut texture is normal for OPC vintage stock and not penalized. Back condition unknown — widen range accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approximately 70/30 left-right), top border appears slightly wider than bottom (approximately 55/45 top-bottom), suggesting moderate off-center condition. Corners appear to show light-to-moderate rounding, particularly visible at the bottom-left and top-left corners, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and possible light toning consistent with age on OPC stock, which typically exhibits softer paper than Topps US issues. No obvious creases are visible from this single photo, but image quality and angle prevent confident assessment of the reverse or fine surface detail; range is widened accordingly to account for hidden wear on back and corner tips.

Centering estimate: left border ~3mm, right border ~5-6mm, top border ~3mm, bottom border ~4-5mm — roughly 65/35 L/R and 60/40 T/B, which alone would be acceptable, but surface and corner condition are the limiting factors here. Corners appear visibly rounded on at least two corners (upper-left and lower-left most evident), consistent with VG-range wear. Surface shows notable soiling/toning and what appears to be handling wear with some gloss loss across the art area; the card also shows some creasing or surface stress lines particularly in the green gas area of the artwork. The authentication sticker obscures part of the surface making a definitive surface call impossible, but the visible wear pattern, rounded corners, and overall fatigue point to a PSA 3 VG as the most likely grade, with VG-EX (4) possible only if corners prove better than they appear and no hard creases are confirmed on the back.
