Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Don Gullett [Hand Cut] #107 sells for $136 against $5.41 raw: a $131 spread, 25× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($124) 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.
