Price history
Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Jackie Robinson #1 sells for $214,957 against $914 raw: a $214,043 spread, 235× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($39,459) 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.
