1977 Topps Star Wars #12 The droids are reunited!

Centering: left border appears roughly 10-12% wider than right (estimated L/R ~55/45 to 60/40), top border noticeably thinner than bottom (estimated T/B ~65/35), so centering is passable but not tight — consistent with EX to EX-MT range. Blue borders show visible chipping/wear along all four edges, most notably the left and bottom edges where the blue layer appears faded or nicked — a known vulnerability of this issue. Corners cannot be examined in full closeup but the bottom-right corner visible near the starburst logo shows moderate rounding consistent with EX (5) rather than EX-MT (6). Surface gloss appears moderate with some light wear or handling cloudiness visible across the image area; no obvious creases detected but the card's overall texture suggests significant handling. The blue border chipping alone would likely cap the grade near 5-6 in PSA's estimation; without corner closeups the lower bound of 4 accounts for possible hidden rounding.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border appears noticeably wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — not dramatically off but the bottom blue border looks compressed; centering is in the EX-MT to NM range. Corners are difficult to assess precisely through the hard case but appear to show light wear with no obvious severe rounding visible — consistent with a 6-7 range. The blue borders, which are notorious chippers on this series, show no obviously catastrophic chipping from this distance, though fine edge wear is plausible and cannot be fully ruled out through the case. Surface gloss appears reasonably intact with no visible creases, staining, or print defects noted, but the case reflection and single-angle photo prevent confident assessment of surface and back condition.

Centering estimate: left blue border appears roughly 10-12% wider than right border (~55/45 L/R); top border appears noticeably wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is off but not severely so, consistent with PSA 7-8 tolerance. The blue borders on this series chip easily and the image resolution is insufficient to assess chipping or edge wear confidently. Corners appear slightly soft/rounded at the bottom-left and bottom-right under the scan conditions, suggesting light wear consistent with EX-MT (PSA 6) rather than NM-MT (PSA 8). Surface gloss appears moderate with no obvious creases visible, but the scan compression obscures fine surface texture and toning. Seller's NM-MT claim seems optimistic given apparent corner softness; range widened due to limited photo resolution preventing confident corner and edge assessment.
