Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Finn [Orange Orange] #45 sells for $165 against $12.60 raw: a $152 spread, 13× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($150) 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.
