1965 Topps Mantle Auto opinions wanted

Some may remember when I got the 1969 Topps Mantle auto in a blue flip and had it crossed over to a red flip PSA 7 PSA/DNA. Authentic Mantle autos on high grade original Topps cards seem to be rare. I just picked up a 1965 Topps Mantle in a blue flip that appears very nice. Would like to get some opinions on what this may grade in a red flip.

6 or 7

I am really hoping for a 7. I think it has a good shot.

The two right corners keep it in a 6 holder, but nice for sure.

all are wrong!

6.5 for sure

Like I have any idea what I'm talking about.

The bottom right looks really dinged or like it has something on it, unless it is the scan. I think you might have a shot at a 6.5-7

I think the card looks better in person. I will probably put a minimum grade of 7 on it. If it does not make 7 I would rather have it in a PSA 9 blue flip.

The bottom right corner looks to me like just a touch. The scan seems to make it look worse.
