Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right side), top border slightly wider than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-B) — centering is off but not severely miscut. Corners are the primary concern: all four corners show visible rounding and wear, with the top-right corner showing the most significant deterioration including what appears to be surface wear or a minor ding; this alone pushes the grade toward VG territory. The yellow border shows chipping and wear consistent with heavy handling, particularly along the top edge where yellowing and border wear is evident. Surface gloss is significantly reduced across the photo area and border, and there is visible soiling or toning on the yellow border; no creases are definitively confirmed from this single image but cannot be ruled out on the reverse. The card is clearly well-played, landing firmly in the VG (3) range with a floor of GOOD (2) if back reveals creases, and a ceiling of VG-EX (4) if surface issues are lighter than they appear.

Centering: left border appears slightly narrower than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is reasonably close, no severe wander. Corners: at this resolution the corners appear to have light-to-moderate rounding consistent with EX to EX-MT range; no sharp corners visible suggesting a 7+ without a better closeup. Surface: photo shows decent gloss retention with no obvious creases, staining, or print defects visible; the yellow border shows no prominent chipping at edges. Edges: appear fairly clean with no gross fraying visible. Without corner macro shots and a back view the range cannot be tightened further; a grade of 6 EX-MT is the most likely outcome, with 7 NM possible if corners are sharper than they appear.
