1977 Topps Star Wars Peter Cushing as Grand Moff Tarkin #181
Estimated grade: 4 (3–5) · MEDIUM confidence · asking $10.03

Centering estimate: left yellow border appears roughly 10-12% wider than right, top border slightly thinner than bottom — approximating 60/40 L/R and 55/45 T/B, which is acceptable for the series but hard to pin precisely from this angle. Surface shows visible wear and handling marks — there appear to be light scratches or scuffs across the photo area and some gloss loss consistent with moderate use. Corner detail is partially obscured by the holder and image quality, but at least two corners show visible softening/rounding rather than sharp points, suggesting VG-EX to EX territory. No obvious hard crease is visible on the front, but the surface wear and corner rounding cap this well below NM; the combination of gloss loss, soft corners, and possible light surface marks places this most likely at PSA 4 VG-EX, with EX (5) possible if corners are sharper than they appear and surface wear is lighter than it looks under better light.
