1977 Topps Star Wars Chewbacca Poses as a Prisoner! #117 00g
Estimated grade: 4 (3–5) · MEDIUM confidence · asking $8.30

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (~65-70% left bias), and top border slightly wider than bottom, suggesting roughly 65/35 L/R and 60/40 T/B — meaningful but not catastrophic off-centering. Corners show visible rounding on at least two visible corners (lower-left and upper-left appear softened), consistent with a VG-EX to EX range. The red border shows some chipping/wear along the left and bottom edges. Surface gloss appears partially intact but dulled, with no obvious hard creases visible at this resolution, though the image quality and angle could conceal light surface creases. Overall the card presents as a solid VG-EX (4) with upside to EX (5) if corners and surface are cleaner than they appear here.

1977 TOPPS STAR WARS CARD #117 RED SERIES HIGH GRADE MINT +
Estimated grade: 7 (6–8) · MEDIUM confidence · asking $5.99

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 55/45 (slightly left-heavy), top/bottom approximately 60/40 (slightly top-heavy) — within NM-MT range for centering alone. Corners appear reasonably sharp with minimal rounding visible, though the slight camera angle makes precise corner assessment difficult, particularly the bottom corners. The red border shows no obvious chipping or heavy wear, and surface gloss appears intact with no visible creases. The seller claims 'Mint+' but some light edge/corner wear consistent with a 7 NM is plausible on a 47-year-old raw card; without a tighter macro shot of the corners and edges, the range must stay wide.

⭐ 1977 Topps Star Wars Series 2 Red Chewbacca #117 Excellent
Estimated grade: 5 (4–6) · MEDIUM confidence · asking $5.83

Centering estimate: left red border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is acceptable and not a primary grade driver here. The four corners show visible light rounding and softening, consistent with EX to VG-EX range; no corner is sharp or fresh. Surface gloss appears moderate with some dulling visible — no obvious hard creases are detected in this image, which aligns with the seller's 'Excellent' self-assessment. Red borders on this series are relatively chip-resistant compared to blue series borders, and no significant edge chipping is apparent, though edge definition is slightly soft. The photo resolution limits confident assessment of fine surface wear, micro-creases, and precise corner condition, so the range is widened accordingly.
