Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Sam Darnold [Press Proof Gold] #301 sells for $440 against $113 raw: a $327 spread, 3.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($400) 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.
