1977 Topps Star Wars #60 Peter Cushing as Grand Moff Tarkin — Raw

Centering estimate: left blue border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is reasonably good for the issue, no severe wander. Blue borders on all four sides show some chipping/wear, most notably on the left and bottom edges where the blue appears slightly ragged, consistent with typical handling wear for this chippy border stock. Corners: upper-left and lower-right show the most visible softening/slight rounding at this resolution; upper-right appears the sharpest. Surface gloss appears intact with no visible creases or major scratches, though the sleeve glare limits full surface assessment. Overall condition reads EX-MT (6) with the corner and border wear holding it back from NM territory; a 7 is possible if corners are sharper than they appear here.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55-60% left), top border appears noticeably larger than bottom (~60-65% top) — rough read suggests approximately 60/40 L/R and 65/35 T/B, which would be acceptable for PSA 7-8 range if confirmed. The blue border is the primary grading concern for this series; visible chipping or wear on the blue edges is difficult to fully assess through the case glare, but no dramatic edge damage is apparent. Corners cannot be evaluated with confidence as all four are obscured or in shadow near the case edges — this is the single biggest limitation of this photo. Surface appears to have reasonable gloss with no obvious creases or staining visible through the glare. The wide grade range (4-7) reflects genuine uncertainty caused by the case obstruction hiding corners and edges; a raw hand-examination or a photo outside the case would be needed to narrow this significantly.
