Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Jonathan Taylor [Gold] #14 sells for $3,564 against $3,175 raw: a $389 spread, 1.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($3,240) 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.
