Strong grading candidate — 7.2× premium in PSA 10
A PSA 10 Ditto sells for $346 against $48.17 raw: a $298 spread, 7.2× the ungraded price. A PSA 9 ($21.13) 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.
