Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (~70/30 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B), so horizontal centering is the primary concern and could approach OC territory on the right side. Corners appear to show light rounding at the visible corners - no sharp points are discernible at this resolution, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears intact with no obvious creases visible, which aligns with the seller's EX claim. Edges look reasonably clean with no obvious tears or major nicks, though the rough cut typical of 1966 Topps is noted and not penalized. The mounting presentation and image distance limit confident corner and surface assessment, warranting a widened range of 4-6.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approx 55/45 L/R), top border appears moderately wider than bottom (approx 60/40 T/B) - centering is acceptable in the NM-NM-MT range and does not appear to cap the grade. Corners appear reasonably sharp at this resolution with no obvious rounding visible on any of the four corners, suggesting at least EX-MT to NM condition. Surface gloss appears intact with good color saturation and no visible creases or staining; the white borders show only minor toning consistent with the age of the set, which is normal for 1966 Topps Batman. Back is not visible, edges cannot be fully assessed for roughness, and corner sharpness cannot be confirmed at high magnification, so the range is kept wide; a NM (7) point estimate reflects the overall clean presentation while accounting for uncertainty about edge and corner condition on close inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approximately 60/40 L/R favoring right), top border appears slightly wider than bottom (approximately 55/45 T/B) - centering is passable but not tight. Corners: the visible corners show some rounding/softness, particularly the upper-left and lower-left, consistent with EX to VG-EX range; no razor sharpness is evident. Surface: gloss appears moderate with no obvious creases visible in this photo, though the image does not reveal the back or allow close corner inspection. Edges appear reasonably clean with no gross chipping; rough cut texture is normal for this issue. Overall the card presents as a solid EX (5) candidate with VG-EX (4) a real possibility depending on corner wear and any surface issues not visible here.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (~65-70% left), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55-60% top), placing L/R near 65/35 and T/B near 55/45 — centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible at this angle (upper-left and lower-left appear softer), consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and minor handling wear; no creases are clearly visible from this photo, though the card's age and handling suggest light surface wear. Edges appear reasonably intact with no obvious nicks, though the rough-cut texture typical of 1966 Topps is present and not penalized; back is not visible, limiting confidence in final assessment.
