Is it worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 George Sullivan #48 sells for $221 against $8.50 raw: a $213 spread, 26× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($201) 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.
