Is Mickey Mouse #CDT-TC-05 worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Mickey Mouse #CDT-TC-05 sells for $66.00 against $16.59 raw: a $49.41 spread, 4.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($60.00) 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.
