1977 Topps Star Wars #9 Rebels defend their starship! — Raw

Centering estimate: left border notably wider than right (~60/40 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — off-center but not severely so. Blue border shows visible chipping and wear along all edges, most pronounced at the bottom left corner area and right edge. All four corners appear rounded to soft, consistent with VG handling; at least two corners show clear rounding visible even at this resolution. Surface shows moderate gloss loss and what appears to be light print defect or chromatic aberration in the image (likely a color-shifted print common to this issue, not damage). No crease is definitively confirmed from this photo, but seller's disclosed G/VG grade aligns with the visible corner and border wear; a soft crease cannot be ruled out given the gloss loss. Grade range of 2–4 reflects the rounded corners, border chipping, and uncertain surface condition — most likely a PSA 3 VG.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R favoring right), top border slightly wider than bottom (roughly 55/45 T-B) — centering is off but not severely OC. Blue border shows visible chipping and wear along all four edges, consistent with typical Series 1 handling; this is most apparent on the top and left edges. Corners appear rounded with moderate wear — no sharp points visible on any corner, suggesting VG-EX to EX territory. Surface gloss is diminished and the print image itself is soft/washed out, though some of that is attributable to the era's print quality rather than surface damage. No creases are clearly visible from this angle, but the image resolution and angle prevent a definitive call on subtle surface issues; a crease cannot be ruled out, keeping the floor at 3.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (roughly 60/40 L-R bias), top and bottom borders appear more even at approximately 55/45 T-B — centering is acceptable but not tight. Blue borders show visible chipping and wear along the left and bottom edges, consistent with this series' known vulnerability. All four corners appear rounded to some degree; at least two corners (top-left and bottom-right) show moderate rounding visible at this resolution, consistent with VG-EX to EX range. Surface gloss appears reduced with some light wear but no obvious hard crease is visible in this scan, though a scan can easily obscure light crease lines. The seller's self-described grade of VGEX+ aligns with the visible evidence; absent a confirmed crease the card could reach EX (5), but corner and border wear point more solidly to VG-EX (4) as the most likely outcome.
