Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Royce Lewis [White Snow] #TH-RL sell for $11.00, only $0.00 above the $16.03 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($9.58) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
