Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Stantler sells for $53.71 against $3.34 raw: a $50.37 spread, 16× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($33.23) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
