Grading rarely pays for this card
PSA 10 copies of Treasure Guardian sell for $22.97, only $22.85 above the $0.12 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($10.00) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
