1977 Topps Star Wars #239 The young star warrior

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (~60/40 left-right favoring right), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 top-bottom) — centering is off but not severely so. Green border shows visible chipping/wear along the left and bottom edges, consistent with typical Series 4 green border fragility. Corners appear lightly to moderately rounded — at least two corners (lower-left, upper-left) show softening visible even at this resolution, suggesting EX to VG-EX territory. Surface gloss appears partially present but diminished; no obvious creases are visible though the image quality and slight warp make a definitive call difficult. Overall presentation points to a PSA 5 EX as the most likely grade, with the range extending to 4 if corner rounding is worse than it appears, or 6 if the border wear is less severe in hand.

Centering: left/right borders appear roughly 55/45 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 60/40 favoring top — acceptable but slightly off; no miscut detected. Corners show visible rounding on at least two corners (bottom-left and top-left appear the most worn), consistent with a 5 EX grade; no sharp corners visible at this resolution. The green border shows some chipping/wear along the edges, particularly notable on the left edge. Surface gloss appears moderate with some loss; no obvious creases are visible from this angle, though the back cannot be assessed. Overall condition suggests EX (5) as the most likely grade, with EX-MT (6) possible if corners are stronger than they appear and a VG-EX (4) floor if any hidden surface crease exists.

Centering estimate: left green border appears slightly wider than right (~55-60% left bias L/R); top border appears narrower than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is imperfect but not severely off-center by PSA standards, consistent with a 6-7 range. Corners cannot be assessed with precision due to soft focus and sleeve; they appear to have some light wear but no obvious rounding or creasing visible. Surface gloss looks reasonable with no obvious print snow or major staining visible, though the sleeve glare obscures the lower third of the card. The soft focus of the entire image prevents reliable corner and edge grading, so the range is deliberately wide; a sharp, sleeve-free photo is strongly recommended before purchasing or submitting.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly larger than bottom (approximately 55/45 T-B) — centering is off but not severely so, no miscut observed. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding visible even at this resolution, particularly the bottom corners, suggesting wear consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface gloss appears intact in the image area though the sleeve compression makes it difficult to assess gloss fully; no obvious creases are visible but the soft image quality cannot rule out light surface wrinkles. Green border edges appear reasonably clean with no significant chipping visible, but slight fraying cannot be ruled out at the corners given the apparent corner wear.
