1977 Topps Star Wars #59 Alec Guinness as Ben Kenobi

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (approximately 65-70% left / 30-35% right), and top border slightly wider than bottom (roughly 55/45 top-to-bottom), placing left-right centering in EX or worse territory. The blue borders show visible chipping and wear along all four edges, most pronounced on the left and bottom edges — consistent with typical 1977 Topps Star Wars blue-border fragility. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding, particularly the lower-left and upper-right, suggesting a grade in the EX range rather than EX-MT. Surface gloss appears partially retained with some dulling visible, and there is minor print snow present in the border but no obvious creases discernible from this single photo. The seller's NM-MT claim appears optimistic given the border chipping and corner wear; a PSA 5 (EX) is the most likely outcome, with 4 (VG-EX) possible if corner rounding is more significant than the photo reveals.

Centering estimate: left border appears approximately 4-5mm, right border approximately 6-7mm, suggesting roughly 60/40 L/R; top border approximately 5mm, bottom border approximately 5-6mm, so top/bottom is close to 50/50 — centering is slightly right-heavy but within NM range. Blue borders show no obvious chipping visible at this resolution, which is encouraging for a 1977 Topps Star Wars card. Corners appear reasonably sharp with at most very light wear on 1-2 corners — likely a soft touch on the upper left corner — consistent with a NM grade. Surface gloss appears intact with no visible creases or staining; print quality looks clean with no obvious snow or defects. The back is not visible, and corner resolution is not tight enough to rule out minor rounding, which combined with the right-heavy centering keeps the ceiling at 8 rather than 9.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 55/45 T-B) — centering is off but not severely OC. Blue borders show some chipping/wear particularly visible along the left and bottom edges, consistent with typical 1977 Topps Star Wars blue-border fragility. Corners appear to show light-to-moderate rounding — no sharp points visible at full zoom, suggesting EX to EX-MT range at best. Surface shows some light scratches or handling marks on the photo area, and there is minor gloss loss visible. No creases are apparent from this angle, but the sleeve/glare obscures the lower-left corner and bottom edge detail; a back inspection would be needed to confirm no hidden creases or staining. Seller's EX-MT claim is slightly optimistic; EX (PSA 5) feels most consistent with observed corner wear and border chipping.
