Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L/R), top and bottom borders appear more balanced at approximately 55/45 T/B - centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corner condition is the primary concern: all four corners show visible rounding and wear consistent with heavy handling, particularly the upper-left and lower-left corners which appear quite soft. Edges show roughness and some chipping consistent with age and play wear. Surface shows moderate gloss loss across the face with what appears to be light surface wear or soiling; a possible light crease or surface wrinkle is suggested near the lower-center area though the image resolution makes confirmation uncertain. Overall the card presents as a solid VG with rounded corners and gloss loss, possibly sliding toward VG-EX if the suspected crease is absent, but corner rounding alone keeps this in the 3 range as the most likely outcome.

Centering estimate: left border ~10%, right border ~15%, top border ~12%, bottom border ~18% — left/right approximately 60/40, top/bottom approximately 60/40, centering is reasonably tight and not an OC concern. Corners appear slightly soft with minor rounding visible on at least two corners, consistent with light handling wear placing this in the EX-MT to NM range. Surface shows good gloss retention with no obvious creases visible, though some minor print texture and possible light print snow typical of the set. Edges appear clean with no significant nicks visible; without a back scan or corner macro shots, the range is widened slightly — strong EX-MT at 6 is the most likely outcome, with NM (7) possible if corners are sharper than they appear at this resolution.
