1977 Wonder Bread Star Wars #12 Stormtroopers — Raw

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border noticeably wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is acceptable and does not cap the grade. The black borders show some chipping/wear visible along the left and bottom edges, consistent with typical Wonder Bread handling wear. Corners appear to have light rounding — no sharp points evident at any of the four corners, consistent with EX to VG-EX range. Surface shows moderate gloss loss and there is visible soiling or scuffing in the upper-left quadrant of the image area; no creases are definitively confirmed from this scan but the surface texture looks slightly stressed. The seller's 'hg6' notation (likely 'high-grade 6') is plausible but the corner and surface wear visible here skews the estimate toward PSA 5 EX as the most likely single grade, with 4 or 6 within reach depending on back condition and corner sharpness under direct inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (~70/30 left-right); top border slightly tighter than bottom (~60/40 top-bottom) — centering is off but not miscut territory. All four corners show visible rounding and wear, consistent with a VG to VG-EX range. The surface shows significant darkening/toning and what appears to be gloss loss across much of the card face, likely from age and handling; no obvious hard crease is visible from this angle but cannot be ruled out on the back. The Wonder Bread set is known for rough cuts and inherent print quality issues, but the corner wear and surface condition here suggest a grade in the 2–4 range, with VG (3) as the most likely single grade pending back inspection.

Centering estimate: left border appears noticeably wider than right (~65/35 L/R), top and bottom borders appear roughly even (~55/45 T/B) — centering is off but not catastrophic. More critically, the corners show visible rounding on all four corners, most pronounced at the bottom-left and top-left, consistent with handling wear. The black border — which is highly unforgiving of edge wear — shows chipping and whitening along the left and top edges, and the card surface displays significant gloss loss with what appears to be general soiling or toning across the image area. No obvious hard crease is visible in this scan, but the overall surface fatigue and rounded corners place this firmly in the VG to VG-EX range; a hidden crease on the back or additional corner damage could push it to a 2. Wonder Bread cards are notoriously condition-sensitive due to their food-issue origins and black borders.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60/40 left-right favoring right side), top and bottom borders look close to 55/45 top-heavy — centering is noticeably off but not catastrophically so, consistent with PSA 4-5 range. Corners: at this resolution all four corners show visible rounding or softness; the lower-left and upper-left corners appear the most worn, suggesting corner rounding consistent with a VG-EX (4) card. Edges: the black border shows some nicking and wear along the left edge particularly. Surface: the image photo shows reasonable gloss retention with no obvious creases visible from this angle, but the COMC watermark and compression make a definitive surface call impossible — a crease hiding in the dark border area cannot be ruled out. Wonder Bread cards are notoriously difficult to find in high grade due to their food-issue distribution; absent a crease this likely settles at PSA 4, but a hidden crease or additional corner damage visible under examination could push it to 3.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (roughly 55/45 L/R), top border appears slightly larger than bottom (roughly 55/45 T/B) — centering is acceptable and not a primary grade driver here. The black borders show visible chipping/wear along the bottom edge and slight wear on at least two corners, with the lower-left and lower-right corners appearing softly rounded rather than sharp. Surface gloss appears moderately present but reduced, consistent with light handling wear. No creases are visible from this scan, but the CoMC watermark and image compression prevent confident assessment of fine surface issues; the grade range reflects that uncertainty.

Centering: left/right borders appear roughly 70/30 favoring left, and top/bottom roughly 65/35 favoring top — meaningful but not catastrophic off-centering. The upper-left corner shows a visible crease or fold damage consistent with the seller's 'low grade' disclosure; the lower-left corner also appears rounded or bent. The black border along the left edge shows chipping and wear consistent with heavy handling. Surface gloss appears largely intact in the center image area but the lower-left corner bend and visible crease push this firmly into VG (3) territory, with the possibility of sliding to GOOD (2) if the corner damage is a hard crease rather than a fold, or recovering to VG-EX (4) if the corner damage is less severe than it appears at this resolution. Back condition is unknown and could affect the final grade.

Centering: left/right borders appear roughly 60/40 favoring left, top/bottom roughly 55/45 — centering is not the primary issue here. The card shows heavy surface wear with multiple scratches and scuffs visible across the face, significant loss of gloss throughout, and the black border shows pronounced chipping and wear along all four edges. Corners appear heavily rounded and worn, consistent with a PR-FR (1) to GOOD (2) grade. The seller's own title of 'PR' appears accurate — this card has sustained substantial handling damage, surface scuffing, and border deterioration that places it firmly at the bottom of the grading scale. A PSA submission at this condition level would typically result in a 1 (PR) or at best a 2 (GOOD), and economic value of submission should be weighed carefully.

Centering estimate: left border appears narrower than right (~60% of right border width), suggesting approximately 60/40 L/R; top border appears slightly tighter than bottom, roughly 55/45 T/B — centering is off but not severely. The black border on Wonder Bread cards hides chipping well, but visible lightening along the left edge suggests wear or border loss. Corners appear to show light-to-moderate rounding, consistent with EX to VG-EX range; no sharp points are visible at any corner. Surface gloss appears moderate with some dullness, and there is no obvious crease visible, though image compression limits confidence. Given the corner rounding, edge wear on the black border, and centering, EX (5) is the most likely grade, with VG-EX (4) possible if corners are more rounded than they appear.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border modestly wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) — centering is acceptable and not an OC concern. Corners on the two visible left-side troopers suggest mild rounding at the top-left and bottom-left corners; the right-side corners are partially cropped by the logo band making full assessment difficult. Black borders on Wonder Bread cards show chipping readily — the black border here appears reasonably intact but surface glare obscures fine detail in the lower-left quadrant. No creases are visible from this photo, and the yellow title banner looks clean with no obvious staining; overall condition reads like a solid EX range card, though the partially obscured corners and glare prevent ruling out a crease or additional wear that could drop it to VG-EX.

Centering estimate: left black border appears roughly 3-4mm, right border (including vertical logo strip) appears slightly wider, suggesting approximately 55/45 L/R; top border appears slightly tighter than bottom, roughly 60/40 T/B — centering is acceptable but not tight. The black borders on Wonder Bread cards hide chipping well but show scuffs as lighter streaks; the black border here shows some unevenness but no obvious heavy chipping is visible. Corners cannot be assessed with confidence due to the COMC watermark obscuring the lower half and general image softness — upper corners appear to have slight rounding consistent with a 5-6 range. Surface gloss appears present but reduced, and there is visible surface wear or print texture across the photo area. No creases are apparent but cannot be ruled out given the image obstruction; the range is deliberately wide to account for hidden corner and surface information.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (approx 55/45 L/R), top border appears tighter than bottom (approx 60/40 T/B) - centering is not a major concern. However, the card shows visible surface wrinkling/texture across the entire face, most notably in the upper-left quadrant, which is characteristic of Wonder Bread set cards that were packaged with bread and absorbed moisture - this is a known issue with this set and likely constitutes surface creasing or paper stress rather than handling wear alone. Corners cannot be cleanly assessed due to blur and glare, but the upper-right corner appears soft. The seller's NM-MT claim appears optimistic given the visible surface distress; the wrinkling/texture pattern alone would likely cap this at EX or below in PSA's eyes. Range widened due to photo blur preventing definitive corner and edge evaluation.

Centering estimate: left border appears slightly wider than right (~55/45 L/R), top border moderately wider than bottom (~60/40 T/B) - centering is acceptable and not a major issue. Corners show visible rounding on all four, most pronounced at top-left and bottom-left, consistent with a VG or VG-EX grade. The black border shows some chipping/wear along the edges, particularly the top edge. Surface appears to have moderate gloss loss with some light wear visible; no obvious hard crease is detectable from this front-only photo, though the seller does not self-disclose a crease. The card aligns with the seller's VG assessment - corner rounding and edge wear push this toward a PSA 3, with a small chance of VG-EX (4) if the back and corners are cleaner than they appear here.

Centering estimate: left/right borders appear approximately 70/30 (left border noticeably wider), top/bottom approximately 60/40 — off-center but not catastrophically so. The black border shows visible chipping and wear along the top edge and upper corners, with the top-left corner appearing blunted/rounded and the top-right corner showing fraying. Surface exhibits significant scuffing and wear lines across the upper half of the card (visible as lighter streaks), consistent with storage wear or handling; gloss is substantially diminished in those areas. The bottom banner and lower portion appear in comparatively better condition. No obvious hard crease is visible from this angle, but surface disturbance is extensive enough to suppress the grade into the VG range; cannot rule out a soft crease hidden by the angle. A Wonder Bread black border is unforgiving — every surface flaw reads clearly.

Centering: left border appears noticeably narrower than right (~70/30 left-right), top and bottom borders look roughly 55/45 — centering is off but not catastrophically so. The black borders on Wonder Bread cards show chips and wear readily; the left and top borders appear moderately scuffed and the black border shows visible chipping/wear consistent with heavy handling. All four corners appear rounded — upper-left and lower-left are the most visibly soft, consistent with a VG to VG-EX range. Surface shows some gloss loss and what appears to be light soiling or toning across the image area, though no obvious hard crease is visible from this scan; a crease cannot be ruled out given the image quality. The scan resolution limits precise corner and edge assessment, so the range is widened accordingly — this card most likely grades VG (3), with VG-EX (4) possible if corners and surface are cleaner than the scan suggests, and GOOD (2) possible if hidden creases or heavier wear are present on the reverse.
