1966 Topps Batman Black Bat #46 The Bat-a-Rang — Raw

Centering estimate: left border ~8mm, right border ~5mm, top border ~5mm, bottom border ~6mm — approximately 62/38 L/R and 55/45 T/B; centering is workable but left-heavy. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-left are most apparent), consistent with a VG-range card. Surface wear is notable — there are multiple scuffs, scratches, and light creasing visible across the face of the card (particularly in the red background area), with clear gloss loss throughout. Edges appear rough but consistent with the normal cut quality for this series; no trimming suspected. Back is not visible, so any additional creases or staining cannot be assessed — the range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) - centering is off but not severely miscut. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most pronounced at the bottom-left and top-left, consistent with G/VG wear. Surface gloss is diminished with some overall toning visible on the white border areas. Edge wear is present but no tears or paper loss are evident; the seller's G/VG self-assessment appears honest - the rounded corners and gloss loss point solidly to a PSA 3 VG, with a back-of-card crease (unverifiable from this photo) potentially pushing to a 2, or cleaner-than-expected surface possibly supporting a 4 VG-EX ceiling.

Centering estimate: left border appears approximately 6-7% of card width, right border slightly wider at ~8-9%, top border ~10%, bottom border ~12-13% — left/right roughly 45/55, top/bottom roughly 45/55, acceptable for NM-MT range but not perfect. Corners: from this single overhead photo the corners appear relatively intact with no obvious rounding visible at normal viewing distance, though the top-left and bottom-left corners may show slight softening — cannot confirm at closeup level. Edges appear reasonably clean with the expected rough-cut texture normal for this 1966 Topps issue. Surface gloss looks present and reasonably strong with no obvious creases, staining, or print defects visible, though a moderate amount of print texture (dot matrix) is typical and visible; the white border areas show some very light toning consistent with age. Back and corner micro-wear cannot be assessed from this single front image, widening the range.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — reasonably centered, no severe miscut. Corners show mild-to-moderate rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left and upper-left appear softer), consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Edges appear slightly rough but that is normal for 1966 Topps cuts. Surface shows some gloss loss and possible light handling wear across the image area; no creases are visible in this photo, though the back cannot be assessed. The card photographs as a solid EX (5) candidate with the possibility of EX-MT (6) if corners and back are cleaner than they appear, or VG-EX (4) if hidden creasing or heavier corner wear is present on closer inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~70/30 L-R), top and bottom borders appear roughly even (~55/45 T-B), so left-right centering is a meaningful concern. All four corners show visible rounding — no sharp points remain — consistent with significant handling wear. Surface shows apparent scuffing and gloss loss across the face, with what appears to be light creasing visible near the lower portion of the card, consistent with the seller's 'Good' self-description. Card edges appear worn but no catastrophic paper loss or tears are evident from this angle; the white border shows toning typical for the 1966 issue. The combination of rounded corners, visible surface wear/gloss loss, and apparent light crease puts this squarely in the VG (3) range, with a floor of GOOD (2) if the crease is heavier than visible here and a ceiling of VG-EX (4) if the crease proves shallow under better lighting.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right border, suggesting approximately 70/30 left-right off-center; top/bottom borders appear closer to 55/45 — the seller's own 'OC' disclosure aligns with what is visible and must be taken seriously, likely capping this card at PSA 5 or below regardless of other qualities. Corner detail is obscured by the snap case angle and glare, but the two visible corners (lower-left and lower-right) show what appears to be light rounding consistent with EX to EX-MT range. Surface gloss appears intact with no obvious creases visible (consistent with seller's 'NO CREASE' claim), and the red-background print shows no obvious snow or major defects from this view. The OC condition combined with apparent light corner wear and inability to fully assess edges/surface from this angle places the most likely grade at PSA 5 (EX), with the range spanning VG-EX (4) to EX-MT (6) depending on what closer inspection of corners and edges would reveal.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 70/30 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T-B) — centering is off but not catastrophic. The top edge shows visible wear and what appears to be a surface scuff or crease running across the upper-left area of the card, which is the most concerning defect visible; this alone pushes the ceiling down. Corners show moderate rounding on at least the top-left and bottom-left corners visible in the photo — consistent with a VG to VG-EX card. Surface gloss appears partially intact but diminished, with some cloudiness or surface wear evident especially in the upper portion. The rough-cut edges are typical for the 1966 Black Bat series and are not penalized. The angled photo obscures precise corner and edge detail on the right side, widening the range; a crease or heavy scuff at the top edge, if confirmed, would anchor this at 3.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border modestly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) - centering is reasonably acceptable and not a primary grade driver here. Corners are the main concern: all four corners show visible rounding under even casual inspection - upper left and lower right appear the most worn, suggesting handling over decades; no corner is sharp enough for EX-MT territory. Surface gloss appears partially intact but shows some dulling consistent with age and handling; no obvious creases are visible from this photo, which is encouraging. Edges show the rough-cut texture normal for 1966 Topps Batman and should not be penalized; no major fraying detected. The back is not visible, limiting certainty - a hidden crease or stain could push this toward a 3, while cleaner-than-expected surfaces could support the 5 ceiling.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~55% weight to right), top border slightly narrower than bottom — approximate L/R ~60/40, T/B ~55/45, which is within acceptable range but leaning off. Corners show visible rounding at all four tips, most apparent at lower-left and upper-left, suggesting this card has been handled; no sharp corners visible even accounting for photo softness. Surface shows moderate gloss loss with some light toning across the white border areas; the red field appears reasonably intact without obvious creases, though the toploader glare along the left edge partially obscures that corner region. No staining or writing detected, and no print snow significant enough to penalize heavily; overall condition profile is consistent with a VG-EX (4) to EX (5) range, with corner rounding being the primary grade limiter. A crease cannot be ruled out beneath the glare zone on the left side, which is the primary reason the floor is held at 3.
