Graded PSA 9 MINT. The presented example of Roberto Clemente's 1967 Topps issue vaunts a pleasing mix of sharp MINT to GEM MINT qualities and reports fewer than 3 dozen competitors in its unsurpassed class at PSA, as none have ever graded higher from nearly 1,500 submissions. Accurately centered on both surfaces with no particularly obvious condition concerns indicative of the opined grade save for a single chip on, of all places, the bottom front edge, just beneath the "S" in Pirates. An anomaly for the issue, the susceptible green-printed reverse shows no advanced traces of chipping whatsoever and could easily qualify for GEM MINT. A phenomenal example celebrating the reigning 1966 NL MVP and bordering on GEM!
