Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approx 60/40 L/R), top border slightly narrower than bottom (approx 55/45 T/B) — centering is marginal but not severely off-center. All four corners show visible rounding and wear, consistent with heavy handling; no corner is sharp. Surface shows significant wear including what appears to be a light diagonal crease in the lower-left quadrant area, plus generalized gloss loss across the face. Edges appear rough-cut but this is normal for the 1966 Topps Batman series. The COMC watermark obscures some surface detail making precise crease and stain assessment difficult, warranting a wider range; overall condition indicators point to a PSA 3 VG with a slim possibility of 4 VG-EX if the apparent crease is shallow, or a 2 if additional surface damage is hidden beneath the watermark.

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 notably wider than right (~65-70% left bias), top border slightly wider than bottom, roughly 65/35 L/R and 60/40 T/B — centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-right most apparent), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows significant scratching/scuffing lines across the red background area — these are quite prominent and visible even at this resolution, suggesting meaningful gloss loss and surface wear. No obvious hard crease is visible, but the surface chatter alone pushes this away from EX-MT territory. Edges appear reasonably intact with typical rough-cut characteristics normal for this vintage set. The back is unseen, limiting full assessment.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approx 55/45 L/R), top border appears slightly wider than bottom (approx 55/45 T/B) - centering is reasonably good, no severe OC issues. Corners show mild-to-moderate rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left and upper-right appear softer), consistent with a grade 5 EX range. Surface shows some general wear and possible light gloss loss but no visible creases are apparent from this photo, which supports at least a 5. Edges appear reasonably clean with no dramatic fraying, normal for the vintage rough-cut style of this set. The seller title '5p5' likely suggests an approximate EX grade which aligns with this assessment; back condition and corner closeups are unavailable, widening the range slightly downward to account for unseen wear.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approximately 70/30 left-to-right), top border slightly narrower than bottom (approximately 60/40 top-to-bottom), placing centering in the VG-EX to EX range at best. Corners: the top-left and bottom-left corners show visible rounding consistent with a VG-EX grade; top-right and bottom-right are partially obscured by the image angle but appear similarly worn. Surface: there is a notable circular scuff or crease artifact in the lower-center area (possibly a Batarang rope impression in the art but more likely a light surface crease or handling mark), and the red background shows some typical print snow for the issue. Edges appear reasonably clean with normal rough-cut texture expected for the 1966 Topps Batman series. Back is not visible, limiting full assessment; range widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55-60% left), top border appears wider than bottom (~60% top), suggesting moderate off-center but within roughly 70/30 range on the tighter axis - no miscut detected. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding, particularly visible on the lower-left and upper-left corners, consistent with a 5-6 grade range. Edges appear reasonably clean with typical rough-cut texture normal for this vintage issue. Surface shows some gloss loss and possible minor handling wear; no creases are clearly visible in this image though the photo angle and watermark slightly limit full surface assessment. A grade of EX (5) seems most likely given the corner rounding and moderate centering, with EX-MT (6) possible if corners are sharper than they appear at this resolution.

Centering estimate: left border ~8mm, right border ~5mm, top border ~5mm, bottom border ~7mm — approximate L/R ratio 62/38, T/B ratio 58/42; centering is off but not severely so, likely within EX-MT range on that axis alone. Corners appear to have light rounding on at least two corners (visible at upper-left and lower-right), consistent with EX to VG-EX wear rather than sharp mint corners. Surface shows decent gloss retention with no obvious creases visible from this photo, and color printing looks clean without heavy print snow. Edges appear reasonably clean for a vintage 1966 Topps card with the expected slightly rough cut; back is not visible so hidden flaws (creases, staining, writing) cannot be ruled out, which widens the range downward.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55-60% right-heavy), top border appears modestly wider than bottom — approximate L/R ratio roughly 55/45 to 60/40, T/B roughly 55/45; centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding visible at all four tips, most notable at the lower-left and upper-left, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface appears to retain reasonable gloss with no obvious creases detected, though the lower-center glare partially obscures that region. Edges look consistent with vintage rough-cut norms for this set and show no egregious fraying, but the overall corner wear anchors this card in the 4-5 range; without a back inspection or corner macro shots, a one-grade swing in either direction is possible.

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.
