Strong grading candidate — 13× premium in PSA 10
A PSA 10 エネコ sells for $130 against $10.00 raw: a $120 spread, 13× the ungraded price. A PSA 9 ($4.25) 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.
