Index grading notes

Centering estimate: left border visibly narrower than right (~60% of right border width), top border appears slightly wider than bottom — roughly 65/35 L/R and 55/45 T/B, so centering is a moderate concern but not catastrophic. Blue border chipping is evident along multiple edges, most notably the top-left and bottom edges where the blue shows clear white wear strikes consistent with handling. All four corners appear rounded to the naked eye — at least two corners (top-left and bottom-left) show definitive rounding, suggesting a VG to VG-EX range at best. Surface gloss appears reduced with some grime or toning visible in the image area; no obvious hard crease is detectable from this photo but a soft crease or surface wrinkle cannot be ruled out given the low lighting. Given the corner rounding, border chipping, and gloss loss, a PSA 3 (VG) is the most likely outcome, with a realistic spread of 2–4 depending on what a grader sees on the back and under bright light.
