Index grading notes

Centering estimated at approximately 70/30 left-to-right (left border noticeably wider than right) and roughly 65/35 top-to-bottom (top border slightly heavier), putting centering in the NM-to-EX-MT range on its own. However, corners show visible rounding and softness - all four appear worn with no sharp points remaining, consistent with VG-EX or lower. Surface shows moderate gloss loss across the image area and there is noticeable print wear/scuffing, particularly in the mid-card region. No visible creases are detected from this angle, which keeps it out of VG-or-below territory, but the combination of rounded corners, surface wear, and off-centering collectively points to a PSA 4 VG-EX as the most likely grade; a 5 EX is possible if corners are slightly better than they appear under the sleeve lighting, and a 3 VG is possible if any hidden surface crease is present on the reverse.

Centering estimate: left border ~6mm, right border ~4mm (approx 60/40 L/R acceptable), top border ~5mm, bottom border ~3mm (approx 63/37 T/B, slightly tight at bottom - borderline but not severe). All four corners show visible rounding/softening, with the lower-left corner appearing the most worn; this level of corner wear pushes the card into the VG-EX to EX range at best. Surface shows some gloss loss and what appears to be light surface wear or print roughness consistent with age, but no obvious hard creases are visible from this single photo - though the back is unseen and may reveal additional issues. Edges appear reasonably intact with no major chips; the rough-cut texture on the right edge is typical for 1966 Topps Batman and is not penalized. Grade estimate of 4 (VG-EX) reflects the corner rounding and centering; range widens to 3 on the low end if the back reveals a crease or staining, and to 5 if corners are better than they appear at this resolution.

Centering estimate: left border appears roughly 4mm, right border roughly 6-7mm yielding approximately 65/35 L/R; top border roughly 5mm, bottom roughly 6mm yielding approximately 55/45 T/B - centering is off-center right but within NM-MT to EX-MT range. Corners: the upper-left and lower-right corners show the most visible wear with slight blunting visible even at this resolution; upper-right appears tighter; lower-left shows mild rounding - consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Surface: gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious creases, staining, or print defects beyond typical 1966 Topps print snow; no writing or major scratches detected. The back is not visible, edges appear clean with no major chipping noted, but the sleeve limits full edge and corner inspection - range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly narrower than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-B) - centering is acceptable for EX range, no miscut detected. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding on at least the visible lower-left and upper-left corners; right-side corners are partially obscured by perspective but appear similarly worn. Surface shows some gloss loss and what appears to be light print speckling consistent with the set, but no obvious creases are visible from this angle. The blue border appears intact without major chipping or staining; back is not visible, preventing full assessment of any paper issues, which is the primary reason for the widened range.
