Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Franco Mastantuono #18 sells for $48.00 against $12.73 raw: a $35.27 spread, 3.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($44.00) 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.
