Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55-60% left bias L/R), top border appears moderately wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is off but not severely so, roughly 65/35 worst axis, consistent with EX-MT to EX range. Corners: all four corners show light-to-moderate rounding visible at this resolution; no sharp points remain, suggesting wear in the EX-to-VG-EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with the expected rough-cut texture normal for this vintage Topps issue — no obvious nicks beyond typical. Surface shows some mild gloss loss and possible light handling wear but no visible creases are apparent from this photo; some toning on the white borders is consistent with age. Back is not visible, limiting confidence; range widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 65-70% left-heavy L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom, approximately 60/40 T/B - centering is off but not catastrophic. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners visible from this angle (lower-left and upper-left appear soft/rounded), consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and what appears to be light handling wear or toning in the white border areas; no obvious creases are visible from this photo but the back cannot be assessed. Edges appear reasonably intact with the typical rough-cut texture normal for this 1966 Topps issue; range is widened due to inability to confirm back condition, corner severity on the right side, or any hidden creases.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (roughly 65-70% left, 30-35% right L/R); top border slightly wider than bottom, approximately 55/45 T/B - significant left-right miscentering but not a miscut. All four corners show visible rounding consistent with VG-range handling wear; no corner is sharp. Surface shows general gloss loss and what appears to be light toning/soiling across the white borders, particularly noticeable on the lower portion of the card. No obvious hard creases are visible from this photo, but the compressed scan resolution prevents confident ruling out of light surface creases; the back is unseen. Overall impression is a solid VG (3) with a chance of VG-EX (4) if corners and surface hold up better in hand.

Centering estimated at approximately 70/30 left-to-right (notably left-heavy) and 65/35 top-to-bottom, which would place this in the NM or EX-MT range for centering alone. Corners appear to show light-to-moderate rounding on the visible corners — the lower-left and lower-right show some wear suggesting rounded tips consistent with an EX grade. The surface shows no obvious creases visible through the photo, and gloss appears partially intact though muted. The COMC watermark obscures part of the lower surface detail making it impossible to fully assess any surface wear or print defects in that region; the true back condition is unknown. Collector note: this appears to be a COMC consignment photo, so the card has been handled and catalogued by COMC staff, which is a mild provenance positive but does not change the physical grade assessment.
