1966 Topps Batman Bat Laffs #21 Batman — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T-B), centering is off but not catastrophically miscut. Corners show visible rounding and wear, particularly noticeable at top-left and bottom-left, consistent with a VG grade. Surface shows a visible diagonal crease running across the lower-left portion of the card face — a meaningful defect that alone pushes the grade down toward VG/GOOD territory. Gloss appears largely gone with some toning on the white border areas. The crease and rounded corners together point to a PSA 3 as the most likely grade, with PSA 2 possible if the crease is deeper than it appears and PSA 4 only if the crease proves shallower under direct inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is off but not catastrophically so. The dominant issue is severe surface wear: the card shows extensive web-like scratching/scuffing across nearly the entire face, consistent with heavy handling or storage damage, which alone would cap this at PSA 2-3 range. Corners cannot be assessed with full precision from this photo but visible rounding is apparent on at least two corners. Gloss appears largely gone. No obvious creases or paper loss are confirmed from this angle, but the surface damage is the primary grade-limiter here; a GOOD (2) to VG (3) range is most realistic pending back inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55/45 L/R), top border appears noticeably narrower than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is acceptable and not a significant grade detractor. Corners show visible rounding consistent with VG-EX to EX range; no sharp points are evident but they are not severely rounded either. Surface gloss appears partially retained with some loss, consistent with light wear; no obvious heavy creases are visible in the photo though a light surface crease cannot be ruled out given the image resolution. The seller's self-described VG/EX aligns with the visual evidence; range is widened slightly due to photo grain limiting precise corner and surface assessment.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (approximately 70/30 L/R), top and bottom borders look roughly 55/45 — centering is off but not severely miscut. The seller note says 'edge wear' which is consistent with what appears to be softened corners visible even at this distance; at least two corners show rounding suggesting wear into the VG-EX to EX range. Surface gloss appears present but the COMC watermark and shooting distance obscure fine detail, making it impossible to confirm creases or print defects with confidence. The edge wear disclosure and visible corner softening point toward a 4 VG-EX estimate, but condition could slip to 3 VG if a crease is present on the back or corners are more rounded than they appear here.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly narrower than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-B), so centering is workable but not tight. Corners appear to show light-to-moderate rounding on at least the visible corners, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Edges look reasonably clean with no obvious nicks visible at this resolution, and the rough-cut texture typical of 1966 Topps is present. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some light wear; no visible creases are apparent from this photo, but the back cannot be assessed and corner detail is limited at this scan resolution. Overall the card presents as a solid EX (5) candidate, with downside risk to VG-EX (4) if corner rounding is more pronounced on reverse inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55-60% left), top border visibly narrower than bottom (~40% top / 60% bottom), giving approximate L/R 55/45 and T/B 40/60 — centering is off but not severely so, no miscut detected. Corners show some rounding visible at all four tips, consistent with a grade in the EX to VG-EX range; no corner is sharp enough to suggest NM territory. Surface gloss appears moderately retained with some minor wear or scuffing visible in the image, but no obvious hard creases are detected from this view. The photo resolution and mild glare prevent confident assessment of fine surface scratches or print snow; backs are unseen, so a hidden crease or stain cannot be ruled out — range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly narrower than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is quite good, well within NM-MT tolerances. Corners appear reasonably sharp with at most very minor softening visible, particularly on the lower-left and upper-right corners, consistent with NM range. Edges appear clean with no obvious nicks; the rough-cut texture typical of 1966 Topps is present and not penalized. Surface shows good gloss retention with some minor print grain/snow typical of the issue; no visible creases or staining. The seller's 'NM-MT' claim is plausible but without a back photo and corner macro detail, a confirmed 8 cannot be locked in — a conservative NM (7) point estimate reflects the uncertainty around corner sharpness from this single scan.
