Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Tony Gonzalez [Precious Metal Gems] #193 sells for $3,478 against $280 raw: a $3,198 spread, 12× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($3,162) 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.
