1977 Topps Star Wars #13 A sale on droids! — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top and bottom borders look relatively even at approximately 55/45 — centering is within EX-MT range and not an obvious downgrade factor. Blue border chipping is the primary concern for this set: the borders show visible wear/lightening especially in the lower-left corner area around the starburst logo, consistent with the typical blue-border chipping seen on 1977 Topps Star Wars. Corners appear slightly rounded/soft at two or more corners, consistent with an EX (5) grade rather than EX-MT (6). Surface gloss appears moderate with some loss, no creases are evident from this photo. The seller's 'EXMT' call seems slightly optimistic given visible corner softness and border chipping; EX (5) is the most likely single grade, with EX-MT (6) possible if corners and chipping are milder than the photo suggests.

Centering estimate: left border notably wider than right (~60/40 L-R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T-B) — centering is off but not severely so. The blue borders show significant chipping/wear, particularly visible along the top and left edges where white spots and nicks are numerous, consistent with the well-known fragility of 1977 Topps Star Wars blue borders. All four corners appear rounded to some degree — upper-left and lower-left corners show the most evident rounding visible even at this resolution. Surface gloss appears reduced with possible light handling wear; no obvious crease is confirmed from this angle but the seller's '[C]' notation in the title may hint at one. The photo angle and modest resolution prevent definitive corner and surface assessment, widening the range; this card grades most likely in the VG (3) range driven by corner rounding and border chipping, with VG-EX (4) possible if corners are sharper than they appear and no crease is present.

Centering estimate: left border notably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top and bottom borders appear roughly even (~55/45 T/B), so horizontal centering is a meaningful concern but not catastrophic. The blue border shows visible chipping/wear along the left and bottom edges, consistent with this series' known susceptibility. All four corners appear lightly to moderately rounded — no razor sharpness; bottom-left corner looks the softest. Surface gloss appears partially intact but dulled, with no obvious creases visible in this scan though a light surface crease cannot be ruled out given the scan quality. The seller's 'VGEX' self-assessment (PSA 4 equivalent) aligns with what is visible — moderate corner rounding, border chipping, and centering issues collectively support a PSA 4 estimate, with the range extending to 3 if any hidden crease exists or 5 if corners are better than they appear at this resolution.
