Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Quentin Coryatt #30 sell for $2.00, only $1.01 above the $0.99 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($1.50) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.

Raw (NM): $0.99
