1966 Topps Batman Red Bat #17A Link to Lincoln

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.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approximately 55/45 L/R), top border moderately wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T/B) — both within EX-MT range. Corners appear reasonably sharp at this resolution with no obvious rounding visible on the top-left or top-right corners; bottom corners are slightly harder to assess but show no gross wear. Surface gloss appears intact with no obvious creasing visible, consistent with the seller's 'hg6' self-grading. Edges show normal 1966 Topps rough-cut characteristics which are not penalized. No staining, print defects or major flaws detected from this single front image; back and corner macro shots would be needed to confirm upper boundary.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably wider than bottom (~65/35 T/B), so top-heavy but not severely off-center. Corners: all four appear to have mild to moderate rounding visible at this resolution — upper left and lower right show the most wear, consistent with EX-MT to EX range; no corner is sharp enough to suggest NM territory. Edges appear reasonably clean with the typical rough-cut texture normal for this 1966 Topps issue, no severe chipping visible. Surface shows good gloss retention overall with no obvious creases or heavy staining, though the COMC watermark partially obscures the lower-center surface; print quality looks typical for the set with minor snow possible but not decisive. Back is unavailable. The COMC watermark limits full surface assessment, and corner closeups are not available, so the 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 (approximately 55/45 T-B) — centering is acceptable for EX-MT range, no OC concern. Corners appear mostly sharp with only very light wear visible at one or two corners, consistent with EX to EX-MT. Surface shows good gloss retention with no obvious creases visible; minor print texture/snow typical of the 1966 Topps Batman issue is present but not penalized. Edges look clean and reasonably cut — rough edge texture noted but treated as normal for this vintage issue. The back is not visible, and corner closeups are unavailable, so a range of 5-7 reflects honest uncertainty about subtle corner rounding or surface wear that may not resolve at this photo distance.
