Grading rarely pays for this card
PSA 10 copies of ゼニガメ sell for $812, only $0.00 above the $5,000 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($103) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.

| 50% | $457 | −$4,593 |
