1977 Topps Star Wars #23 See-Threepio is injured! — Raw

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 55/45 — within acceptable range for a mid-grade copy but the card stand obscures the bottom border preventing a precise read. Blue borders show visible chipping/wear along edges, particularly noticeable on the left and top, consistent with this issue's known susceptibility. Corners appear lightly rounded — no sharp points visible at this resolution, suggesting corner wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears moderate with some loss but no creases are visible from this photo; however the angle and card-stand obstruction prevent confident assessment of the lower portion of the card. The back is not visible, limiting confidence significantly — range reflects genuine uncertainty between VG-EX (4) and EX-MT (6).

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 70/30 L/R), top and bottom borders appear more balanced at approximately 55/45 T/B — centering is off but not catastrophically so. The blue borders show visible chipping and wear along all four edges, consistent with the well-known fragility of this series' blue borders. All four corners appear rounded to varying degrees, with at least two corners showing moderate-to-heavy rounding visible even at this resolution. Surface gloss appears diminished with some cloudiness suggesting handling wear; no definitive crease is visible from this angle but the overall wear pattern is consistent with a VG (3) card. The photo angle and modest resolution prevent confident assessment of surface creases or edge splits, so the range is widened accordingly.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom approximately 55/45 — centering is marginal but not extreme. The blue border shows visible chipping and wear consistent with this issue's known fragility, most notably along the top-left and bottom-left corners. All four corners show rounding; the top-left corner appears noticeably blunted and the top-right shows similar wear, consistent with a PSA 3 VG range. Surface gloss appears significantly reduced with what looks like light scuffing or handling marks visible on the image area; no obvious hard creases are detectable from this angle but the card's overall fatigue suggests possible light surface creasing on the back. The card is raw, raw, raw — blue border chipping alone typically caps this specimen at PSA 4 at best, and corner rounding with gloss loss pushes the honest estimate toward PSA 3.
