Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Token 15AY-JPTKN sells for $99.95 against $18.29 raw: a $81.66 spread, 5.5× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($90.90) 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.
