Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (roughly 70/30 L-R), top border slightly narrower than bottom (approximately 60/40 T-B), so centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corners show visible light rounding consistent with a 5 EX grade - not sharp but not heavily blunted. Surface gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious creases visible from this angle, though the scan resolution limits certainty on finer surface flaws. Edges appear clean with no egregious chipping; the slightly rough cut texture is typical for the 1966 Topps Batman print run and not penalized. Back is unseen, which could reveal staining or creases that would push this toward a 4; range widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border ~2mm, right border ~4-5mm, top border ~3mm, bottom border ~4mm — approximately 70/30 L/R and 55/45 T/B, so left-to-right centering is notably off but not extreme. Corners: the upper-left corner shows visible rounding/wear, the upper-right corner appears soft as well; lower corners are partially obscured but suggest similar light-to-moderate rounding. Surface: there is visible surface wear and what appears to be a light crease or fold line near the upper-left quadrant, with some gloss loss evident across the card face; print quality is typical for the set with minor snow. Edges: cut appears rough but within normal vintage parameters for this set. The combination of off-centering, corner rounding, and suspected surface crease/wear places this squarely in the VG-EX to EX range; back condition and true corner sharpness cannot be confirmed from this single front image, which widens the range.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55-60% right-heavy), top border appears slightly wider than bottom, roughly 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B - acceptable for EX-MT range. Corners appear relatively clean with only very light wear visible; no obvious rounding detected at this resolution but the upper-right and lower-left corners warrant closer inspection. Surface gloss appears reasonably intact with no visible creases; color registration looks solid with typical vintage print characteristics. The white borders show some light toning consistent with age, which is normal for this set, and no staining or major surface defects are apparent - back is unavailable for assessment which limits confidence and widens the range.
