1977 Topps Star Wars #183 David Prowse as Darth Vader

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly tighter than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-B) — centering is off but not severely so, within EX-MT range. Corners show visible rounding and softening on at least two corners (top-left and bottom-left appear the worst), consistent with VG-EX to EX wear. The yellow border shows some chipping/wear along the left and bottom edges. Surface gloss appears reduced but no obvious heavy creases are visible in this photo; a crease cannot be ruled out in shadowed areas. The soft image quality prevents confident assessment of surface and edge condition, warranting a widened range of 3–5 with a point estimate of 4 (VG-EX).

Centering: left border appears narrower than right (approximately 60/40 L-R bias favoring right), top and bottom borders look relatively even at roughly 55/45 — centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners: at card-width resolution the corners appear slightly soft/rounded, suggesting light wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range; no sharp points visible but no dramatic rounding either. Surface/edges: yellow border shows some minor chipping or wear artifacts along the left and bottom edges typical of this series; the photo image area appears reasonably clean with no obvious creases visible, gloss appears moderate but somewhat reduced. The top-loader and slight glare obscure fine corner and surface detail, preventing a tighter range — back cannot be assessed, and corner closeups are unavailable, so the range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R acceptable), top border notably wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B), centering is not a primary concern here. The seller self-discloses a crease, which is consistent with visible surface disruption detectable in the scan; a crease alone typically anchors a card at VG (PSA 3) or lower. Corners show rounding consistent with handling wear — no sharp points visible on any corner, placing them in the VG-to-GOOD range. Gloss appears reduced across the surface with moderate wear. The yellow border shows minor chipping/edge wear typical of the series. Without a back scan and corner macro, the crease severity cannot be fully assessed — if the crease is a hard fold rather than a light surface wrinkle, PSA 2 becomes the realistic ceiling.

Centering estimate: left yellow border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R); top border appears slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is reasonably acceptable for a PSA 6-7 range but the perspective angle makes precise measurement difficult. Corners: the bottom-left and bottom-right corners show visible rounding/softness at this resolution; top corners appear slightly better but not sharp. Surface: the yellow border shows no obvious heavy creasing or staining visible, and gloss appears present but slightly muted. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious nicks visible from this distance. The image quality and angle prevent confident corner and edge assessment, so the range is widened; a grade of 5 EX is the most likely outcome given the softened corners, but a clean surface could push to 6 EX-MT.
