RE: Is this card Poor, Fair or Good?
These are PSA grading definitions for the three category. Based on this, I'm leaning Fair. The card hasn't lost it's eye appeal, the colors are bright, it's well centered, no rips or tears, no missing pieces. But appreciate the opinions.

GOOD 2: Good
A PSA Good 2 card's corners show accelerated rounding and surface wear is starting to become obvious. A good card may have scratching, scuffing, light staining, or chipping of enamel on obverse. There may be several creases. Original gloss may be completely absent. Card may show considerable discoloration. Centering must be 90/10 or better on the front and back.

FR 1.5: Fair
A PSA Fair 1.5 card's corners will show extreme wear, possibly affecting framing of the picture. The surface of the card will show advanced stages of wear, including scuffing, scratching, pitting, chipping and staining. The picture will possibly be quite out-of-register and the borders may have become brown and dirty. The card may have one or more heavy creases. In order to achieve a Fair grade, a card must be fully intact. Even though the card may be heavily worn, it cannot achieve this grade if it is missing solid pieces of the card as a result of a major tear, etc. This would include damage such as the removal of the back layer of the card or an entire corner. The centering must be approximately 90/10 or better on the front and back.

PR 1: Poor
A PSA Poor 1 will exhibit many of the same qualities of a PSA Fair 1.5 but the defects may have advanced to such a serious stage that the eye appeal of the card has nearly vanished in its entirety. A Poor card may be missing one or two small pieces, exhibit major creasing that nearly breaks through all the layers of cardboard or it may contain extreme discoloration or dirtiness throughout that may make it difficult to identify the issue or content of the card on either the front or back. A card of this nature may also show noticeable warping or another type of destructive defect.

I would want that authenticated before spending any money if you are looking to buy. My concern would be how could a card with that much damage could still have that vibrant of color with almost no fading..

You've got paper loss on the upper left corner. Paper loss = Poor.

No missing pieces? What do you mean no missing pieces? It's missing parts of the surface on the front and back.

I'm no expert, but I'd question the authenticity of this card. It looks like water was used to "age" it.
