Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Kris Bryant [Mini Gold Back] #25 sell for $17.00, only $0.00 above the $20.00 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($15.24) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
