Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approximately 70/30 left-to-right), top border slightly thinner than bottom (roughly 60/40 top-to-bottom) — centering is off but not severely so, no miscut detected. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding, most visible at the upper-left and lower-left corners; right-side corners appear slightly better but still show wear consistent with a 5 EX range. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some dulling evident across the image area, no creases are visible in this photo though the back cannot be assessed. Edges show some roughness consistent with vintage Topps rough-cut norms and do not appear trimmed; overall the card presents as a solid EX with the centering and corner wear preventing a push into EX-MT territory.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~60-65% left bias), top border slightly wider than bottom, approximate L/R ratio ~65/35 and T/B ~55/45 - centering is off but not catastrophically so. Corners: all four corners show visible rounding and wear, no sharp points evident, consistent with VG-EX to EX range at best. Surface: there is visible creasing along the upper portion of the card (a diagonal crease line is apparent running from upper center toward upper left), which is a significant defect - this alone drags the grade meaningfully. Gloss appears partially intact but with noticeable wear and possible surface scuffing; the sleeve obscures precise corner assessment but rounding is clearly present across all four corners, pointing to a VG-EX (4) as the most likely grade with the crease potentially pulling it to VG (3).
