Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Eduardo Nunez [Orange Refractor] #215 sell for $27.00, only $0.00 above the $70.00 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($24.99) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
