1977 Topps Star Wars Stickers #24 Droids on the sand planet — Raw

Centering estimate: the black film-strip border appears slightly wider on the left (~55%) versus right (~45%) and somewhat tighter on top versus bottom — left/right roughly 55/45, top/bottom roughly 60/40, which is acceptable for the grade range. Corners appear to have light rounding at all four points, most visible at bottom-left and bottom-right; no sharp corners are evident at the resolution provided. Surface shows some yellowing/toning consistent with age on the white backing area visible above the sticker, and the sticker face itself shows minor gloss loss but no obvious creases or staining. The sleeve obscures fine surface detail and corner tips, so a crease or heavier wear cannot be fully ruled out, widening the range; overall presentation is consistent with EX to EX-MT condition.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 55/45 to 60/40 — acceptable; top/bottom appears tighter, perhaps 65/35 favoring the bottom, which is a mild concern but not severe. Surface appears reasonably clean with decent gloss remaining, though the soft sleeve introduces reflections that obscure fine surface detail and corner sharpness. Corners cannot be assessed with precision through the sleeve glare, but no dramatic rounding or soft edges are immediately apparent — they read as lightly worn at best. The seller notes this was 'opened from slab 7/24,' meaning it was previously graded and cracked out, which introduces unknown handling risk; without corner closeups or a back view, a range of 5–7 is appropriate. A clean EX-MT (6) is the point estimate pending better photography.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R acceptable), top border somewhat narrower than bottom (~60/40 T/B), centering is passable but not tight. Corners show visible rounding at all four tips, most evident at bottom corners, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Edges appear reasonably clean with no obvious nicks visible at this resolution. Surface shows moderate gloss loss and some toning/aging consistent with vintage sticker stock; the COMC watermark obscures the center surface, preventing full assessment of print defects or creases, which widens the range downward. Card appears to be in played but presentable condition, with no obvious hard creases visible, landing most likely at PSA 4 VG-EX.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approximately 55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 60/40 T/B) — centering is acceptable but not tight. Corners show light-to-moderate rounding on all four, most visible at the bottom-left and bottom-right, consistent with a card that has seen gentle handling. Surface gloss appears partially intact with some dulling visible across the image area, no obvious creases detected from this view. Edges appear reasonably clean with no major chipping or tears visible, but the white border stock shows typical aging/toning; the two-asterisk copyright line suggests this may be an O-Pee-Chee sticker rather than Topps, which cannot be confirmed from the front alone but is worth noting for set identification purposes.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (roughly 55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (approximately 55/45 T/B) — centering is acceptable and not a major grade factor here. The corners are the primary concern: all four corners show visible rounding under inspection, with the top-left corner appearing the most worn and the top-right showing a small ding or soil spot; none are sharp enough for NM-MT territory. Surface gloss appears moderately intact with no obvious creases visible in this photo, though the image is flat enough that a light crease could be hiding. Edges appear reasonably clean without significant chipping. The overall presentation suggests an EX to EX-MT card (PSA 5–6), with corner rounding being the main grade-limiter; the back cannot be assessed and could reveal additional wear or sticker residue issues common to this sticker series.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is reasonable for this issue. The film-strip black border shows no obvious chipping visible at this resolution, though the Comc watermark obscures the lower-center surface. Corners appear intact with only very light softening visible at the top-left and bottom-right corners, consistent with EX-MT to NM range. Surface gloss appears present but the watermark prevents full assessment of the image area for print defects or staining; no creases are evident. Given the corner softening and inability to fully assess the surface, a range of 5–7 is warranted with 6 (EX-MT) as the most likely grade.
