1977 OPC Star Wars Stickers #9 Ben (Obi-Wan) Kenobi

Centering on the die-cut sticker itself appears reasonably balanced left/right (roughly 50/50) and top/bottom (roughly 55/45), so no significant centering penalty. The die-cut edges look clean and complete with no visible nicks or chips along the yellow border. Corners on the sticker are inherently shaped by the die-cut and appear intact without obvious rounding or creasing. Surface gloss looks present and largely intact with no visible creases, staining, or print defects apparent at this resolution, but corner detail and edge micro-wear cannot be fully confirmed from this single front scan — back condition is unknown. Estimated EX-MT range with potential to grade NM if corners hold up under close inspection.

Centering on the sticker die-cut appears reasonably balanced left/right (roughly 55/45) and top/bottom (roughly 60/40), so no severe miscut is evident. The yellow die-cut border looks intact around the perimeter with no obvious chipping or major edge tears visible at this resolution, but corner detail is too soft to assess rounding with precision. Surface gloss appears moderate — some flatness is possible but no creases or staining are discernible. The image distance and slight angle prevent confident corner and edge assessment, so the range is intentionally wide; a closer photo would be needed to narrow between EX-MT and NM.

Centering on a die-cut sticker is assessed relative to the yellow border surround and the image crop: left/right border appears roughly 55/45 and top/bottom roughly 60/40, which is acceptable for this issue. The yellow die-cut border shows some unevenness consistent with period production but no obvious miscut. Corner assessment is difficult at this resolution — the die-cut corners appear intact without obvious rounding but no tight closeup is available. Surface shows no obvious creases or heavy wear visible, though the watermark/overlay on the lower third obscures the caption area and part of the image, limiting certainty. Given visible condition appears EX range but photo quality and obstructions prevent confident differentiation between EX (5) and EX-MT (6); range is widened accordingly.

Centering on this die-cut sticker appears reasonably balanced left-to-right (roughly 55/45) but the top yellow border reads noticeably thinner than the bottom, estimating approximately 65/35 top-to-bottom. The die-cut edge quality is difficult to assess cleanly due to the sleeve and watermark obstruction, but the overall profile looks intact without obvious tears or paper loss. Corners on a die-cut sticker are non-standard (rounded by design), making corner grading less decisive, but the perimeter edges appear to show light wear consistent with a mid-grade raw example. Surface gloss appears reduced and there may be minor handling marks on the photo area, but no creases are confirmed from this image; the watermark and glare obscure the lower third, widening the range considerably.
