1977 TOPPS STAR WARS CARD #048 BLUE SERIES HIGH GRADE NRMT N
Estimated grade: 6 (5–7) · MEDIUM confidence · asking $5.99

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — reasonably centered, no severe tilt. Blue borders show visible chipping and wear along all four edges, most notably at the corners, which appear lightly to moderately rounded rather than sharp — consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Surface gloss appears decent with no obvious creases visible, and the photo image looks clean with no major print defects noted. The card stand obscures the bottom border slightly, preventing full assessment of lower corner and edge condition; back is unseen. Seller's 'NRMT' claim appears optimistic given the corner and border wear visible — EX-MT (6) is the most defensible single estimate, with NM (7) possible if corners are sharper than they appear at this resolution.

1977 TOPPS STAR WARS CARD #048 BLUE SERIES HIGH GRADE EXCELL
Estimated grade: 5 (4–6) · MEDIUM confidence · asking $3.99

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R acceptable), top border appears notably thinner than bottom (~60/40 T/B, slightly off but not severe). Blue border shows visible chipping/wear along the edges consistent with this set's known fragility — top and left edges show light border wear. Corners: at least two corners (top-left and bottom-right) show visible rounding/softening consistent with an EX grade; no corners appear truly sharp. Surface shows some scuffing or light gloss loss across the image area, and there is a faint impression or light surface mark visible in the lower-left quadrant of the photo area that could be a very light crease or handling mark — this is the main uncertainty. No major creases confirmed, no staining or writing visible. Overall condition is consistent with EX (5) to EX-MT (6), with the surface wear and corner condition pulling it toward the lower end; the seller's 'EX/EX-MT' self-description seems reasonable and honest.
