Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably thinner than bottom (~60/40 T/B) - centering is acceptable but not tight. Corner inspection reveals visible rounding on at least two corners (lower-left and upper-right most apparent), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and light wear; there appears to be a faint diagonal mark or light crease in the upper-center area of the card face near the moon, which if confirmed as a crease would push toward VG (3) territory. Edges appear reasonably intact with no major notching visible, consistent with vintage handling wear. The image is a single flat scan with good lighting, but no corner closeups are available and the potential surface crease cannot be definitively confirmed from this photo alone - widening the range 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 severely miscut. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most notably the upper-left and lower-left, consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows general gloss loss and what appears to be light handling wear; there is a possible very light crease or surface fold in the upper portion of the card near Batman's head area, though the CGC watermark partially obscures this zone making definitive assessment difficult. Edges appear reasonably clean with typical rough-cut texture normal for this 1966 Topps issue; no obvious staining or paper loss visible, but the back is unseen and the watermark obstruction prevents full surface confidence.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border appears slightly wider than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-B), so centering is acceptable but not tight - consistent with EX to EX-MT range. Corners show light to moderate rounding visible at all four corners, particularly the lower-left and upper-right, suggesting wear consistent with EX (5) rather than EX-MT (6). Surface gloss appears present but slightly reduced; no creases are visible in this image though the photo angle and CGC watermark make definitive surface assessment difficult. Edges appear intact with no major nicks - rough cut texture is normal for this set and not penalized. Back is not visible, limiting confidence; range widened accordingly to account for possible hidden reverse-side wear or staining.

Centering: left border ~8mm, right border ~5mm, top border ~5mm, bottom border ~6mm — yielding approximately 62/38 L/R and 55/45 T/B; left-heavy bias is the primary centering concern. Seller notes 'edge wear' and 'corner wear,' both of which are visible in the photo: corners show rounding/softening, most notably on the lower-left and upper-left, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Edges show light fraying/wear consistent with the seller's disclosure. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some loss evident; no creases are clearly visible in this single front image, but the back is unexamined. This is a raw card with honest seller-disclosed wear; the likely grade sits at PSA 4 (VG-EX), with EX (5) possible if corner wear is lighter than it appears and no back defects exist, and VG (3) possible if any crease or heavier surface wear is present on the back.
