Condition Details
Slight corner rounding and minor edge wear visible on the left side borders. Centering appears fairly standard for the set era with a slightly heavier left border.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading due to low raw value and moderate edge/corner wear capping the potential grade below a PSA 9.
