1966 Topps Batman Black Bat #11 Poison Pellet — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55-60% left bias), top border slightly wider than bottom — roughly 60/40 L/R and 58/42 T/B, which is acceptable for a 7-8 range on its own. Corners: the two visible front corners (upper-left and lower-right) show very light rounding/soft wear, consistent with EX-MT to NM range; the lower-left corner looks slightly more worn. Surface and gloss appear reasonably intact with no obvious creases or staining visible; some minor print texture/snow typical of the set is present. Without corner macro shots or a back view, the range is widened — if corners are crisper than they appear, a 7 is achievable, but the softness on at least one corner and moderate gloss loss pull the point estimate to a 6 (EX-MT).

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~65-70% left / 30-35% right), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — left-to-right centering is a concern, borderline 70/30 or worse. Corners show mild rounding on all four, consistent with a card that has seen some handling but no acute damage; no corners appear sharply creased. Surface gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious major scratches or staining visible, though some light wear is likely given age. No creases are visible from this scan, which supports at least EX (5) territory, but the off-centering and corner rounding prevent anything above EX-MT (6); the back is unexamined and vintage 1966 Topps cards frequently show toning or print defects on reverse that can pull a grade down.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60% of right border width), top border appears slightly narrower than bottom — approximate L/R ratio ~65/35 and T/B ~60/40, which is acceptable but not tight. Corners: the visible corners show mild-to-moderate rounding, particularly the lower-left and upper-left corners, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with the rough cut texture normal for this vintage Topps issue — no flagrant chipping or tears visible. Surface shows decent gloss retention with some minor print snow visible in the illustration, typical for this set; no obvious creases are visible from this angle, though the back is unseen and card handling wear cannot be fully ruled out. The overall presentation suggests a solid EX (5) with a range spanning VG-EX (4) to EX-MT (6) depending on corner sharpness under direct inspection and back condition.

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 — left-to-right shift is the primary centering concern. Corners: the visible corners show moderate rounding, consistent with a VG-EX to EX card; no razor-sharp points are evident but no severe mushrooming either. Edges appear slightly rough but within normal 1966 Topps cut variation. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some toning/gloss loss in the white border areas, and the COMC watermark obscures a center section making full surface inspection impossible. No obvious creases are visible from this angle, though the back is unseen; range is widened accordingly to account for hidden flaws.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~60-65% left / 35-40% right L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B), so moderate off-center but not severe miscut territory. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (upper-left and lower-left most apparent), consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and light toning on the white borders typical of the era; no obvious hard crease is visible from this angle, but the seller describes it as 'Used' which warrants caution about back condition and hidden surface wear. The penny sleeve introduces some glare that obscures fine surface detail, preventing confident assessment of any light creases or paper stress; back is not visible, widening the range downward.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border appears slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) - centering is reasonable but not tight mint. Corners: all four corners show some degree of rounding/wear, most visible on the upper-left and lower-right corners which appear softened rather than sharp - consistent with EX range. Edges appear relatively clean with no obvious nicks visible. Surface shows good color saturation and apparent gloss retention with no visible creases, staining, or print defects beyond what is typical for the set; no print snow or toning issues apparent. Without back inspection and corner close-ups, a range of 4-6 is appropriate, with EX (5) as the most likely grade given the corner wear observed.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T/B), so centering is stressed but not catastrophic. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible from this angle - upper left and lower left appear soft with moderate rounding, consistent with a VG-range card. Surface shows general gloss loss across the face and there appear to be light handling creases or surface wrinkles, particularly noticeable in the mid-left area of the card. Edges appear slightly rough but within normal parameters for 1966 Topps vintage cuts. The CoMC watermark partially obscures the center, limiting full surface inspection, so the range is widened accordingly - a hidden crease could push this toward a 2, while cleaner surface than apparent could support a 4.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L/R), top and bottom borders look closer to 55/45 — the left-right imbalance is the primary centering concern but does not reach miscut territory. Corners: at this resolution the corners appear to have light-to-moderate rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and lower-right seem slightly blunted), consistent with EX to VG-EX range; no sharp razor corners visible. Surface/gloss: artwork reproduction looks clean with no obvious creases or staining visible, and gloss appears reasonably intact though some flatness may be present. The seller's title includes 'READ' which sometimes signals a disclosed flaw not fully visible in this front-only photo — the back and any hidden surface issues (light crease, paper pull) could push the grade lower toward a 4; without that information the range sits at 4–6 with EX (5) as the most likely point grade.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (~60/40 L/R favoring right), top border slightly narrower than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is off but not severely so. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (upper left and lower left appear softer), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some loss evident, and there is mild toning/aging to the white borders typical of this vintage issue. No creases are visible from this angle, but the back is unseen and could conceal surface issues; the moderate corner wear and slight border toning anchor this solidly in the 4 VG-EX range with EX (5) possible if corners are better than they appear at this resolution.
