1977 Topps Star Wars #25 Luke rushes to save his loved ones — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R acceptable), top border noticeably narrower than bottom (~60/40 T/B, mild off-center but within EX-MT range). The blue borders show visible chipping and wear particularly on the bottom-left and right edges, consistent with the known fragility of this series. Corner inspection at this resolution suggests at least light rounding on two or more corners — no sharp points visible — consistent with EX condition. Surface appears intact with reasonable gloss remaining and no obvious creases visible, which supports the seller's EX-MT+ claim directionally, though corners appear softer than a true EX-MT (6) would require. Without a back scan and tighter corner closeups, the range spans VG-EX (4) to EX-MT (6), with EX (5) as the most defensible single estimate.

Centering: left border appears roughly equal to right (~55/45 L/R), top border is visibly wider than bottom (~65/35 T/B), which is a moderate but not severe off-center condition consistent with EX range. Blue border shows light chipping and wear along edges, particularly visible at the lower-left and right corners, with corner rounding that is noticeable but not severe — suggesting EX to EX-MT territory. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some dulling, no creases are visible from this angle. The seller's 'EX-MT+' self-assessment aligns loosely with the photo evidence, though corner and border wear make PSA 6 a ceiling and PSA 4-5 the more realistic landing zone for this raw card.

Centering estimate: left border appears notably wider than right (~60/40 L/R favoring left), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is off but not severely so by itself. The blue border shows visible chipping and wear particularly along the top and left edges, consistent with heavy handling. All four corners appear rounded to soft, with at least two corners showing clear rounding visible at this resolution — consistent with a VG (3) card. The seller's title suffix '[C]' likely denotes a crease, and the surface image area shows mottling/cloudiness that could indicate surface creasing or gloss loss; a crease, if confirmed, keeps this in the 2–3 range. Without a confirmed crease this could reach 4 (VG-EX), but corner rounding and border chipping already suggest 3 is the most likely grade.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is acceptable but not tight. Blue border shows visible chipping and wear along all four edges, most notably at the lower-left corner near the starburst logo. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding consistent with an EX grade; no corner is sharp but none is severely blunted either. Surface appears clean with reasonable gloss retention and no obvious creases visible from this angle, though the scan compression makes it difficult to fully assess gloss loss or fine scratches. The seller's 'EX' self-assessment aligns with the visual evidence; a range of PSA 4–6 is appropriate given edge wear on the blue border and corner softness typical of this issue.

Centering estimate: left border notably wider than right (~65-70% right-heavy shift), top border slightly wider than bottom, rough L/R ratio ~70/30 or worse — centering is a clear concern. The blue borders show significant chipping and wear on all four edges, most visibly along the left and bottom sides, consistent with heavy handling. Corners: all four appear rounded to some degree, with the lower-left corner showing the most visible rounding — consistent with VG to VG-EX range. Surface shows loss of gloss across much of the image area, and there is a whitish scuff/wear patch visible in the upper-left quadrant of the photo image itself. No obvious hard crease is confirmed from this angle, but the combination of border chipping, corner rounding, gloss loss, and centering issues places this card firmly in the PSA 2–4 range; a point estimate of 3 (VG) feels most honest given the cumulative wear visible.
