1966 Topps Batman Blue Bat #6B Canape for a Cobra — Raw

Centering estimate: left border ~8-9mm, right border ~4-5mm, top border ~5mm, bottom border ~6mm — left/right approximately 65/35 to 70/30, top/bottom roughly 45/55; centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (upper-left and lower-left appear most worn), consistent with a VG to VG-EX range. Surface shows notable wear with gloss loss across much of the card face, and there is what appears to be a light diagonal surface crease or handling mark in the lower-right quadrant near Batman's legs. Edges appear acceptable for the vintage with typical rough-cut texture normal for this set. Overall condition presentation is consistent with a PSA 3 VG, with the possibility of a 4 VG-EX if the apparent surface mark is shallow; est_min drops to 2 if that mark proves to be a hard crease on inspection.

Centering estimate: left border ~6mm, right border ~4mm, top border ~5mm, bottom border ~4mm — approximately 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B, so centering itself is not catastrophic. However, a visible diagonal crease is evident running across the lower-left quadrant of the card (crossing through the blue bat logo area), which is a hard cap on grade per PSA standards. Corners show moderate-to-heavy rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left and upper-left appear blunted), consistent with significant handling wear. Surface gloss appears diminished with some toning on the white borders, and the card shows general wear consistent with a VG (3) card with the crease potentially pushing it toward Good (2) depending on crease severity on the back. A PSA VG 3 is the most likely outcome; a VG-EX 4 is possible only if the crease is shallower than it appears in scan.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (approximately 70/30 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T/B) - off-center left-to-right is the primary centering concern. Corners: the visible corners show moderate rounding, particularly the lower-left and upper-right, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface: the artwork area appears to retain decent gloss with no immediately obvious creases, though the photo angle and resolution prevent definitive crease assessment - the back is not visible. Edges appear reasonably clean with no egregious roughness, though some minor edge wear is visible; without tight corner closeups and a back scan, the range must remain wide, settling at 4 VG-EX as the most likely grade given the corner rounding and off-centering observed.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T-B), so centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most pronounced at upper-left and lower-right, consistent with a VG (3) range card. Surface shows general gloss loss and what appears to be light toning/wear across the face; no obvious hard creases are visible in this image but the overall surface texture looks dull and worn. Edges appear reasonably intact without major chips or tears, consistent with normal handling wear for a raw 1966 Topps; the watermark obscures some surface detail in the center, introducing uncertainty about hidden crease or staining that could push the grade toward a 2.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approx 55L/45R), top border appears narrower than bottom (approx 40T/60B) - centering is off but within EX-range tolerance. Corners appear to show light rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left and lower-right), consistent with an EX grade; no sharp points are clearly visible through the holder. Surface gloss appears moderate with no obvious creases visible from this angle, though the holder and glare partially obscure the lower portion of the card. The seller's EX+ claim is plausible but corner condition hidden by the case holder prevents confident confirmation; range widened accordingly due to obstructed corner and edge visibility.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-to-R favoring right side), top border appears slightly wider than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-to-B) — centering is acceptable, 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 glare but appear similar. No creases are visible from this image, consistent with the seller's 'L2' notation which likely indicates a light handling grade rather than a crease disclosure. Surface gloss appears present but moderately reduced — consistent with honest handling wear over ~60 years. Edges appear clean with no major nicks. The combination of corner rounding and modest gloss loss points to EX (5) as the most likely grade, with EX-MT (6) possible if corners are sharper than they appear and VG-EX (4) a floor if the back or corner closeups reveal additional wear.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (approximately 70/30 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (roughly 60/40 T/B), creating moderate misregistration but not miscut territory - no adjacent card printing visible. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left and lower-right appear softened), consistent with EX range. Surface gloss appears present but slightly diminished with possible minor print snow visible in the yellow background areas, typical for this issue. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious nicks visible from this scan; back condition unknown, which widens the range - a hidden crease or stain could drop this to VG-EX or below.

Centering estimate: left border appears approximately 10-12% wider than right border (roughly 60/40 L/R), top border appears slightly tighter than bottom (roughly 55/45 T/B) - centering is acceptable for NM-MT range and not an OC concern. Corners: all four corners appear reasonably sharp in this photo; no obvious blunting or rounding visible at this resolution, though the bottom-left corner looks very slightly soft - consistent with a 7-8 grade. Edges appear clean with no visible nicks or roughness beyond normal 1966 Topps rough-cut texture. Surface gloss appears strong with good color saturation and no visible creases, print snow appears minimal; however the photo does not allow definitive close-up corner or edge inspection, and the back is unseen, widening the range. Seller's NM/MT+ claim is plausible but cannot be confirmed to 8 without tighter corner photography.
