Is it worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Gale Sayers #38 sells for $20,465 against $133 raw: a $20,332 spread, 154× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($18,658) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
