Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A SGC 10 Maury Wills #175 sells for $578 against $6.00 raw: a $572 spread, 96× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($216) 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.
