1977 OPC Star Wars #178 Waiting at Mos Eisley — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~60/40 L/R), top and bottom borders look close to even (~55/45 T/B) — acceptable for OPC vintage. The orange border shows no obvious chipping or significant edge wear visible at this resolution. Corners appear to have mild rounding on at least two corners (lower left most visible), suggesting light wear consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Surface gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious creases detected, though the sleeve glare obscures the lower-left corner detail. Back condition is unknown and could adjust the grade downward; OPC cards of this era also commonly show print texture variation that is normal for the issue.

Centering estimate: left border ~20%, right border ~80% of horizontal margin space — significantly right-heavy, approximately 75/25 L/R; top border appears slightly wider than bottom, roughly 55/45 T/B, which is acceptable. The right-heavy horizontal centering is the primary grade limiter, pushing toward NM (7) or lower rather than NM-MT. Corners appear reasonably sharp in the sleeve photo with no obvious rounding visible at this resolution, consistent with EX-MT to NM range. The salmon/orange OPC border shows no obvious chipping or wear along the edges visible here. Surface gloss appears intact with no creases or staining evident, though the sleeve and photo angle obscure fine surface detail; the back is unviewable. Given the notable left-right centering imbalance and inability to confirm corner sharpness under magnification, a PSA 7 NM is the most likely outcome, with 6 possible if corners show wear on closer inspection and 8 possible if centering measures better than it appears here.
