Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (approx 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly wider than bottom (approx 55/45 T-B), centering is within NM-MT range on both axes. Corners appear reasonably sharp with very minor wear visible on at least the lower-left and upper-right corners suggesting light rounding consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Surface shows good gloss retention with no visible creases; print quality looks clean with no obvious snow or major defects visible, though the CoMC watermark obscures the center of the image. Edges appear clean and cuts look typical for the 1966 Topps Batman rough-cut norm. Back is not visible and corner sharpness cannot be fully confirmed due to image scale and watermark obstruction, warranting a widened range of 5-7.

Centering estimated at approximately 70/30 left-to-right and 65/35 top-to-bottom — borders are uneven but not severely miscut. Corners show visible rounding on all four, consistent with a VG-range card; no corner is sharp or even close. Surface shows significant soiling, toning, and what appear to be light creases or surface wrinkles particularly in the lower-left quadrant; gloss is largely gone. Edges appear rough but that is normal for 1966 Topps Batman. The COMC watermark obscures the center surface making it impossible to confirm crease severity or staining detail with certainty, hence the widened range — a clean VG (3) is the most likely grade, but heavy surface wear or a confirmed crease could push toward GOOD (2), while a surprisingly clean surface under the watermark might support VG-EX (4).

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55% right-heavy), top border appears moderately narrower than bottom, rough L/R ratio ~60/40 and T/B ~65/35 — acceptable for the grade range. Corners appear to show light to moderate rounding on at least two visible corners (particularly lower-left and upper-right), consistent with an EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears reduced but present, with some toning visible in the border areas typical for this vintage issue. No obvious creases are visible, though the COMC watermark partially obscures the surface assessment; edges appear reasonably clean with the rough cut texture normal for 1966 Topps Batman. Without a clean corner closeup and back inspection, uncertainty is elevated, hence the widened range.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60/40 L/R favoring right), top border slightly narrower than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is off but not severely so. More critically, the card shows visible surface wear and what appears to be paper stress or light creasing across the face, consistent with a VG or lower grade; corners appear rounded with no sharp points remaining — all four corners show obvious wear. Gloss appears largely gone with a flat, worn surface texture visible throughout. The image resolution limits confident assessment of fine corner and surface detail, but the overall presentation strongly suggests a VG (3) card with possible crease presence dragging it toward Good (2); a VG-EX (4) ceiling is possible only if the surface stress lines are shallow and no true crease is confirmed on back.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60/40 left-right favoring right), top border slightly narrower than bottom (~55/45 top-bottom) — centering is off but not severely so. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible in frame (lower-left and lower-right appear soft/rounded), consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and what appears to be light toning or wear on the white border areas; no obvious creases are detectable from this photo but the image resolution and the COMC watermark overlay obscure fine surface detail. Edges appear reasonably clean with typical rough-cut texture normal for this 1966 Topps issue. The COM watermark prevents confident assessment of the center image surface, widening the range; absent hidden creases or staining on the back, a VG-EX (4) point estimate is most likely.
