1977 Topps Star Wars #235 Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill)

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 55/45 to 60/40, top/bottom closer to 60/40 — acceptable for this series. The orange border shows no obvious chipping visible at this resolution, which is a positive sign for a 1977 Topps Star Wars card. Corners appear to have light wear — not visibly sharp enough to suggest NM-MT or better, but no obvious rounding that would indicate heavy use; estimated light wear consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Surface gloss appears intact with no visible creases, staining, or print defects, though the holder/sleeve introduces some glare that limits corner inspection. Edges appear clean. The holder obscures precise corner and edge assessment, widening the range; a raw card inspection could move the grade in either direction.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (roughly 65-70% left bias), top border slightly wider than bottom — perhaps 60/40 top-to-bottom; overall centering is off but not severely miscut. The watermark obscures the center of the card making surface evaluation difficult. Corners appear to show some rounding at at least two corners visible (bottom-left looks slightly soft), consistent with light wear. The green border shows no dramatic chipping visible at this resolution, and gloss appears present but cannot be fully assessed. Without a clean unobstructed photo, a wide range of 4–6 is warranted; the apparent corner wear and centering issues suggest mid-grade EX territory as the most likely outcome.
