Strong grading candidate — 49× premium in PSA 10
A PSA 10 Roronoa Zoro sells for $26,797 against $542 raw: a $26,255 spread, 49× the ungraded price. A PSA 9 ($62.57) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
