Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Rusty Kuntz #66T sells for $94.00 against $4.52 raw: a $89.48 spread, 21× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($85.00) 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.
