Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border ~4mm, right border ~6mm, top border ~4mm, bottom border ~5mm — approximately 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B, which is acceptable for NM-MT range but the right border disparity is notable. Corners: upper-left appears reasonably sharp, upper-right shows a slight soft tip; lower corners are harder to assess but no obvious rounding or creasing is visible. Surface gloss appears intact with good color saturation and no obvious print snow or major staining; the card scans cleanly with no visible creases. Edges look typical for the 1966 Topps rough-cut production run — slight irregularity is not penalized per set norms. Primary grade cap comes from the corner softness on at least one tip and the centering disparity; back condition unknown, which keeps the floor at 5.

Centering estimate: left border roughly 6-7%, right border roughly 8-9%, top border approximately 5-6%, bottom border approximately 8-9% — left/right ratio reads close to 55/45 horizontally, top/bottom reads approximately 60/40 favoring bottom, centering is acceptable but not tight. The white border shows visible toning/yellowing consistent with age. Corner inspection reveals rounding on at least two corners visible at the top-left and bottom-left, with the top-right and bottom-right appearing slightly better but still showing wear — consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some handling wear and possible light creasing or stress lines in the mid-area of the card, though a definitive crease cannot be confirmed without a higher-resolution scan or back view. Gloss loss is moderate. No writing, staining, or major tears visible; the card appears structurally sound but the corner rounding and surface wear keep this firmly out of EX-MT territory.

Centering estimate: left border notably wider than right (approx 70/30 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approx 55/45 T/B) — horizontal centering is a meaningful concern. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding and wear, consistent with VG to VG-EX range; no corner appears sharp. Surface: a diagonal crease line is visible running across the lower-left quadrant of the card (crossing Batman's figure), which is a significant grade-limiting defect pushing toward VG or lower. Gloss appears moderately diminished overall. The crease alone likely caps this at PSA 3 VG territory, with the rounded corners and off-centering consistent with that estimate; a 4 VG-EX is possible only if the crease is shallower than it appears in this photo.
