Nice card, Lee. In my entirely uneducated opinion I would venture that it would grade as a 6. But you (and everyone else here) are a much better judge than me.

Corners look 7ish, but that chip or dent in the left border might hurt. The centering is in line for a 7 as well. That card looks alot like the few I have owned. It is a very dull card almost lacking any gloss. I have been drilled submitting 57's without much gloss. Good luck and I would think a 6 or 7 on a good day.
Lee- great card I think it's probably a 6 but maybe you will get that 7. either way a great looking card. Raw on ebay? what did it cost ya?
here is mine, I have been wondering what it will grade as well (note the stains on the back):
Don't mean to hijack your thread Lee, but I figured if there was ever an appropriate thread to tag along on, this was it. good luck with the card- John
Some of you do realize that the card meets the centering guidelines of a PSA 9? I got 63/37 at worse, what do you get if you think centering is suspect????????
Having hundreds of 1957 PSA 6 and 7, I would say this would get a PSA 6 based on the lower left corner plus one other corner that is soft. If three corners were good, then it would have an outside shot at a 7.
I got it from another board member and I thought it was a little overgraded and looked like a solid 6. I wanted to see if you all agreed and for the most part the consensus (6 with a shot at 7 on a good day) was right on. I decided to free it from its plastic coffin and stick in the personal collection.

You have the card in hand so i assume you are just asking about the centering? If so and the corners warrant it I think that maybe you have a shot.
The centering appears to my eye to be within the guidelines.

Here's a PSA 6; seems like yours would be at least a 6.
And, here's a PSA 5. Yours is better, IMHO.

yes I agree it is not a 5 by any means. It has a shot at 7 if the corners are all there.

That's a tweener for sure. More often than not, though, I think you're looking at a 6.
I say 6.5.....
ok maybe a 6.75....
No matter the grade nice card....
