1959 TOPPS ROCKY NELSON 446 EX MCG 5 BASEBALL PITTSBURGH PIRATES

A ROCKY NELSON from the 1959 TOPPS set, card #446. This is a great addition to any PITTSBURGH PIRATES collection. Graded by Mint Condition: 5 This card presents with beautiful eye appeal and high-end centering on the front. However, the presence of a collector's name stamp and pencil marks on the reverse surface acts as a technical ceiling, resulting in a mid-grade evaluation despite the sharp corners and clean edges. Centering: 9 / 10 The front displays excellent symmetry, with only a mild lean toward the top and left edges. Corners: 8 / 10 Front: The Top Left and Bottom Left corners show very minor touches of wear. The Top Right and Bottom Right corners remain sharp and well-defined. Back: The corners on the reverse show light micro-fuzzing consistent with the age of the card stock. Edges: 8 / 10 Front: The edges are clean overall, with only faint, expected chipping visible along the left border. Back: The reverse edges show a characteristic rough factory cut but no significant damage or fraying. Surface: 4 / 10 The reverse surface features a purple 'NELSON' name stamp and a green pencil mark near the center, which impacts the technical grade. Please pay for multiple cards in ONE payment.
