A CONNIE DIERKING from the 1970 TOPPS set, card #66. This is a great addition to any CINCINNATI ROYALS collection.
Graded by Mint Condition: 8
This card is a high-grade example of a vintage tallboy with exceptional corner and surface preservation. Its final condition assessment is primarily constrained by the top-left centering shift on the front, which falls within the standards for a Near Mint grade.
Centering: 7 / 10
