Grading rarely pays for this card
PSA 10 copies of ゴーリキー sell for $15.97, only $12.98 above the $2.99 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. Even a PSA 9 ($33.32) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.

Expected value — how often does it need to gem?
| Chance it gems | Expected sale | Expected net (standard fee) |
|---|---|---|
| 25% | $28.98 | −$24.01 |
| 50% | $24.64 | −$28.34 |

Even a miss (a 9) beats selling raw after the standard fee — the gem rate only decides how much you win by.
