1977 Topps Star Wars Stickers #5 See-Threepio

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear roughly 55/45 to 60/40 horizontally; top/bottom is harder to judge given the die-cut sticker format with orange border — the die-cut shape is not severely off-center. Corners on this sticker format are partially obscured by the orange die-cut border, making precise corner grading difficult, but visible areas show some rounding consistent with moderate handling wear. Surface gloss appears somewhat diminished with light wear visible across the image area; no obvious hard creases are visible but the scan resolution and angle prevent a definitive ruling. The die-cut sticker nature of this issue must be noted — PSA grades these as stickers and the orange border chipping/wear is the primary grade determinant, which shows some degradation here but no catastrophic damage.

Centering on the sticker die-cut within the card backing appears reasonably centered left-to-right (roughly 55/45) but the top orange border looks slightly tighter than the bottom, estimating approximately 60/40 top-to-bottom — acceptable for the grade range. The upper-left corner of the card backing shows a visible nick or ding, and the upper-right corner also appears slightly soft; the two lower corners look better but are not sharp. Surface gloss appears present but there is noticeable toning/aging across the sticker face consistent with a 45-year-old card, and a small crease or stress line appears possible in the lower-left area of the card backing — hard to confirm definitively from this photo. No major creases, staining, or writing visible; the sticker itself (the die-cut portion) looks clean, which is the primary collectible element, but the overall card condition lands this in the EX to VG-EX range pending closer corner and back inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R); top border appears slightly wider than bottom (~55/45 T/B) — centering is acceptable for NM range. The orange sticker border and black card stock both look clean with no visible chipping on the blue/black borders. Corners appear reasonably sharp from this distance but the photo angle and card lean prevent definitive corner assessment — there is possible very light wear on one or two corners consistent with a 7 NM. Surface gloss appears intact with no obvious creases, staining, or print defects visible. The single-angle seller photo prevents confident back inspection or close corner evaluation, so the range is widened accordingly; a 7 NM is the most likely outcome but strong corners could push this to an 8.

Centering: The orange die-cut sticker border appears left/right roughly 55/45 and top/bottom approximately 60/40 within the card frame - acceptable for the grade range. Corners on the card stock itself appear reasonably intact with no severe rounding visible, though the photo resolution makes precise corner assessment difficult. The sticker surface shows good gloss retention with no obvious creases visible; the die-cut orange border edge looks clean without significant chipping or peeling. The main uncertainty is that sticker cards introduce a separate grading concern - any peeling or lifting of the sticker from its backing would cap the grade, and that cannot be fully assessed from this single front-facing photo at this resolution.
