Index grading notes
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.
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 slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) - not extreme but measurable. All four corners show visible rounding/softening, with the bottom-left and bottom-right corners appearing the most worn; none are sharp. The white borders show moderate toning/yellowing consistent with age, and there is noticeable gloss loss across the surface. No creases are clearly visible in this photo, though slight surface wear is present - the seller's VG/EX self-assessment aligns reasonably with what is seen. Back is not visible so any hidden creases or staining cannot be ruled out, which keeps the floor at 3. Overall condition reads as a PSA 4 VG-EX candidate, with 3 possible if the back reveals a crease.
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.
