1977 Topps Star Wars #264 Star pilot Luke Skywalker! — Raw

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom approximately 55/45 favoring top — within acceptable range, no miscut observed. The green borders show some visible chipping/wear along the edges, particularly noticeable on the left and bottom edges where the green shows scuffing consistent with handling. Corners appear to have light-to-moderate rounding — none appear sharp enough for NM territory, with the bottom-left corner showing the most visible wear, suggesting a 5 EX ceiling is realistic. Surface gloss appears mostly intact with no obvious creases visible from this angle, though the back is unexamined. The overall presentation is consistent with a well-handled but crease-free copy; buyer should examine back and corners under magnification before assuming EX grade.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 55/45 favoring top — within acceptable range for NM-MT/NM territory, no miscut observed. The green borders show no obvious chipping visible at this resolution. Corners appear to have light wear — not needle-sharp but not heavily rounded either, consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Surface gloss appears reasonably intact with no obvious creases, staining, or print defects visible, though a single front-facing photo limits assessment of back condition, edge wear, and corner micro-detail. Range is widened slightly to account for what cannot be confirmed: back condition, subtle corner rounding, and any edge fraying not visible at this angle.

Centering: left/right borders appear roughly 55% left / 45% right — acceptable; top/bottom borders show noticeably more space at top (~60%) vs. bottom (~40%), drifting toward 65/35 range, which is workable but not tight. Green borders show visible chipping/wear on at least two corners (lower-left and lower-right appear noticeably rounded or nicked), consistent with a PSA 5 EX presentation. The surface photo area appears reasonably clean with decent remaining gloss but there is some visible wear and possible minor gloss loss on the green border areas. No creases are apparent from this image, but the back is unseen and corner wear is the primary grade limiter here; a crease on the back or heavier corner rounding than visible could push this toward a 4.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 55/45 to 60/40 horizontally; top/bottom appears tighter, approximately 65/35 favoring top, which is within acceptable range for this set. The green border shows visible chipping or wear along the edges, particularly noticeable on the left and bottom edges — typical for this set but indicative of handling wear. Corners appear to show moderate rounding, consistent with a VG-EX (4) to EX (5) grade; no corners appear sharp or near-mint. Surface shows what appears to be light scuffing or scratch lines across the photo area, and there is some gloss loss visible. No obvious hard crease is detectable from this single front photo, but the overall wear pattern and corner rounding point to a 4 as the most likely grade, with 5 possible if the corners are slightly better than they appear and no back damage exists.
