1966 Topps Batman Red Bat #17A Link to Lincoln — Raw

Centering estimate: Left border appears noticeably wider than right (approximately 70/30 L/R skew), top and bottom borders appear closer to 55/45 - meaningful horizontal off-centering but not miscut territory. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible in frame (lower left and lower right), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and what appears to be light handling wear but no obvious creases are detectable in this photo, though the sleeve glare obscures fine surface detail. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major chips or tears visible; the seller's VG-EX self-assessment aligns with the visible evidence, placing this most likely at PSA 4 with EX (5) possible if corners are better than they appear through the sleeve.

Centering: left border appears roughly 10-12% wider than right border, and top border slightly wider than bottom — estimating approximately 55/45 left-to-right and 58/42 top-to-bottom, which is acceptable for mid-high grade. Corners: at this resolution all four corners appear relatively sharp with only minor blunting visible, consistent with EX-MT to NM range; no obvious rounding. Edges: cuts appear reasonably clean with no dramatic rough chipping beyond what is normal for this vintage Topps issue. Surface: gloss appears intact across most of the face with no visible creases, staining, or print defects beyond expected vintage print snow; however, the photograph does not allow for close corner or edge inspection, and the back is unseen, widening the range. A conservative estimate of PSA 6 EX-MT is most likely, with 7 possible if corners hold up under close examination.

Centering estimate: left border ~20%, right border ~80% horizontally — card reads significantly right-heavy, approximately 80/20 L/R; top/bottom appears more balanced near 55/45. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most pronounced at bottom-left and top-left, consistent with a VG-range card. Surface shows general gloss loss and what appears to be light creasing or handling wear across the face, though the COMC watermark obscures a clear read of the surface condition. Edges appear reasonably intact with no obvious tears, but the combination of rounded corners, significant left/right miscentering, and probable surface wear places this comfortably in the VG to VG-EX range (3–4); the COMC stamp prevents a clean surface assessment and widens the range downward to accommodate possible hidden flaws.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top and bottom borders look close to 55/45 — within EX-MT tolerance. Corners: the two visible left corners show mild-to-moderate softening consistent with light rounding; right corners are harder to assess at this distance but appear slightly worn. Surface gloss looks reasonably intact with no obvious creases visible in this photo, which supports the seller's EX-MT claim. Edges appear clean with no notable fraying; the slight card bow visible in the photo is likely photographic rather than a physical warp. Back condition is unknown and could move the grade in either direction; the 5–7 range reflects that uncertainty alongside the corner softening observed.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (approximately 70/30 L/R), top and bottom borders look closer to 55/45 T/B - left-to-right centering is the primary concern and approaches OC territory. Corners: upper-left corner shows a visible crease or fold/stress line running diagonally, clearly visible in the photo; the other three corners appear to have light-to-moderate rounding consistent with EX range. Surface: gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious heavy scratching or staining visible; some minor print texture normal for the issue. Edges: cut appears within normal vintage Topps rough-cut tolerance. The upper-left corner crease/stress is the grade-limiting factor, pulling the estimate toward EX (5) rather than EX-MT (6); back not visible so creases or staining there cannot be ruled out, hence the range extends down to VG-EX (4).

Centering estimate: left border ~35%, right border ~65% L/R — noticeably right-heavy, roughly 65/35 off-center; top border appears slightly wider than bottom, approximately 55/45 T/B, which is acceptable. All four corners appear intact with only minor rounding visible, consistent with light-to-moderate wear rather than sharp points — corners look like EX-MT to NM range. Edges appear clean with no obvious chips or tears, which is typical for this issue. Surface gloss appears reasonably present with no visible creases from this photo, though the left-right centering pushes this card toward the EX-MT range rather than NM territory; the back is unseen and could introduce additional deductions. Range is widened slightly due to inability to inspect corners under magnification and unknown back condition.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60/40 left-right favor right), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 top-bottom) — centering is acceptable for a PSA 6-7 range. Corners: the two visible corners (bottom-left and bottom-right) show light wear with minor rounding but no severe fraying; top corners are partially obscured but appear similarly lightly worn. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious chips or tears; the rough-cut texture is normal for this 1966 Topps issue and is not penalized. Surface gloss appears present with no visible creases, though a single photo cannot confirm the reverse or rule out light surface wear; the print shows good color saturation with no obvious snow or major print defects noted.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (approximately 65/35 L/R), top and bottom borders look closer to 55/45 T/B — moderate left-heavy misalignment but not extreme. Corners: upper-left and lower-left appear reasonably sharp from this distance; upper-right and lower-right show slight softening consistent with light wear, no obvious rounding. Edges appear clean with the rough-cut texture normal for this 1966 Topps issue. Surface gloss looks largely intact with no visible creases, staining, or print defects beyond typical vintage print snow; the COMC watermark obscures a portion of the center but does not indicate a card flaw. Back is not visible, limiting full assessment; the centering and corner condition from this angle most comfortably suggest EX-MT (6), with NM (7) possible if corners are sharper than they appear and EX (5) as the floor if there is unrevealed surface wear.

Centering estimate: left border appears wider than right (roughly 60/40 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-B) — centering is passable but left-heavy. Corners are the primary concern: all four corners show visible rounding under the sleeve, most notably the lower-left and upper-right, consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface gloss appears reduced but not absent — there is moderate gloss loss visible across the face, no obvious creases detected in the image though the sleeve makes a definitive call difficult. Edges appear reasonably clean with no severe chipping; rough cut texture is normal for this issue and not penalized. The sleeve obscures fine corner and surface detail, widening the range; a crease on the reverse or additional surface wear could push this toward a 3.

Centering: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 70/30 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T-B) — centering is noticeably off but not miscut territory. All four corners show visible rounding and wear, with the bottom-left corner appearing the most degraded. Surface shows moderate gloss loss across much of the card with what appears to be light handling wear and some toning on the white border areas. The card has a curved/bowed appearance suggesting it has been stored without protection for some time; no obvious hard creases are visible in this image but the bow and surface wear push this into VG range, with the corner condition the primary grade limiter — a back-side crease (which cannot be confirmed here) could pull this to a 2.
