Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Aaron Judge, Derek Jeter [Gold Refractor] #FL-AJ sell for $61.00, only $0.00 above the $224 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($55.00) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
