Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border modestly wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is competitive for vintage Star Wars, no OC flag warranted. Corners: all four corners appear reasonably sharp in this view; there is some softness suggesting very light wear on at least one or two corners, consistent with NM rather than NM-MT. Surface: the orange border shows no obvious chipping or heavy scuffing visible at this resolution; gloss appears mostly intact with no prominent scratches. Edges appear clean from this angle; a full back inspection and corner macro shots would be needed to confirm whether this grades 7 or pushes to 8 — the error card status (Ken vs. Obi-Wan) adds collector interest but does not affect the numerical grade.

Centering estimate: the orange border appears narrower on the left (~35%) versus right (~65%) and slightly top-heavy, suggesting roughly 65/35 L-R — a meaningful centering concern. The card is photographed at a lean angle which prevents precise corner assessment, but the lower-left corner shows visible rounding and the bottom edge appears slightly rough/worn. The surface image has the typical OPC/Topps print grain but no obvious crease is confirmed from this view, though the card shows gloss loss consistent with handling. The 'Ken Kenobi' error (misprint of 'Ben') is a known OPC error that adds collector interest but does not affect PSA grade; corners and centering are the primary grade limiters here, landing this in VG-EX to EX territory pending back inspection.
